<p>As the title tells, I am looking for 2-3 universities which will definately accept me.
My SAT Scores are : maths 680 CR 620 WR 620
TOEFL : 109
GPA ( Since i am from Germany I am not 100% sure about that ) : 3,3 maybe higher
Extracurricular Activities : Lots of sports ( nothing special ), Coach of a soccer team and dedicated to nutrition and therefore cooking.
I have worked a lot however ( above 1000 hours alltogether )
community service : besides usual stuff like class represantitive, I was a student of trust and attended in a financial group. Additionally I helped some students who struggled with maths.
Some minor awards, like an award for a scientific essay or a highscore in a math competition.
Took some additional courses, but they differ greatly from what you know.</p>
<p>Yeah thats basically it, I think I could write a strong essay. What do you think ? Are some Universities popping up in your mind ?
Location does not matter for now, just collecting some ideas
By the way I want to major in Economics or Business probably.</p>
<p>BTW sorry for posting this in the wrong section.</p>
<p>Do you need financial aid of any type? American universities can be expensive by european standards, and you really aren’t competitive for top schools that offer free rides.</p>
<p>Lesley, Northeastern (maybe), Ithaca, Skidmore, Bryant…just to throw out some names. I know you said location doesn’t matter (these are all east coast schools, since that’s where I focus), but are you looking for city schools or more campus-y schools?</p>
<p>I am looking for school with a campus life, if its that what you mean by campus-y. I once visited a friend in london and was enlightened by the campus life he had there.</p>
<p>By campus-y, I mean that your school has a somewhat closed-off campus that is separate from the surrounding city or town (i.e. Notre Dame), as opposed to a campus where the college building may be interspersed with the city or town itself (i.e. New York University).</p>
<p>Suffolk is a good one for your stats, but it is definitely IN the city, rather than having a more closed off campus. I know you’re looking for safeties, but Northeastern you might like (though it’s definitely not a sure thing for you).
Quinnipiac, Siena, Susquehanna, and…UMass-Amherst is another one that isn’t a sure thing, but you have a good shot at. Good luck!</p>
<p>Sacred Heart University, High Point University, Endicott College, Gettysburg College, SUNY New Paltz, Lycoming College, Saint Peter’s College, and Monmouth University could all be safeties for you as well.</p>
