Female, Biracial (black/white) if that matters. Planned major is computer science. Rec letters from Computer Science and Economics teachers. Take the SAT again in January?
Looking at:
Stevens
NYU (Courant/Tandon)
Skidmore
Fordham
Barnard
Bryn Mawr
Open to school suggestions in the Middle Atlantic states–many now seem like reaches. Wants: sense of community, suburban/urban setting. Have a few local safeties not listed.
For the community, I would definitely suggest Bryn Mawr and Barnard, less on NYU because of the fact that all of the campuses are completely separated. IMO, you will be accepted into the majority of your schools, with NYU being a bit iffy. C

Decided against Fordham/Skidmore/NYU and put a few more safeties in the mix. Am waiting to hear on the rest but it’s a nerve-wracking experience so you definitely cheered me up! I hope you’re right
These are just my thoughts, but I think you should definitely be confident! You have strong stats and your school choices are great. Good luck! I’d also appreciate it if you could take a look at my chance me.
@ladygriff good luck with all these schools! If you end up at Bryn Mawr, I look forward to seeing you around! It’s a wonderful community and the computer science department is excellent. Very supportive professors and a lot of camaraderie among students. If you have any questions about it, feel free to let me know.
