Ok. My opinion is give Cornell a shot. It could go either way and is worth a chance. You need a math subject test as well though. Either math 1 or math 2. If you’ve run the NPC and it’s in the right price range, ED could help.

URochester is possible. They value demonstrated interest. Make sure to show them the love. Run the NPC though because they don’t give quite as much financial aid as Cornell does.

Again, look hard at the SUNYs. UBuffalo has nice merit and your grades and test scores would most likely get you direct admission to engineering and the honors college program. If you haven’t yet toured their engineering department, try to get there to do it. They really do a great job at it in our opinion. I wasn’t ever even a STEM type person and their tour made me want to sign up for engineering!

I don’t know enough about the others you mentioned. I think Georgia Tech and U Michigan are harder for out of state residents though (and tough even for in state)
