Match Me - Film, writing major [US citizen outside the US, 1540 SAT, 3.99 GPA]

Congratulations on building your strong record in high school! Below are my GUESSES as to what your chances might be at some of the schools that have been mentioned so far. If a program of interest requires a portfolio or similar for acceptance, these guesses do NOT take that into account. Thus, if a school I categorized as Extremely Likely has a program that requires a portfolio for acceptance, it is NOT an extremely likely admit for that program.

I added a few schools like Columbia College Chicago, Marymount Manhattan, SUNY Purchase, and Emory. One thing to note about Emory (and any Atlanta-area schools) is that a lot of film production is going on in the area and studios being built there, etc. So even though it isn’t the first place people think of in terms of film, there is definitely a film industry there.
