Prominent Colleges that don't look at Sports/Many ExtraCs?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hello all, I’d like to think of myself as a very good student and am involved in Mu Alpha Theta and National Honor Society (I’m sure everyone here is though :'(). I never did involve myself in anything else (sports). I’ve heard that its impossible for get into any top college if you do not have a sport, many clubs, the best grades, scores. Would anyone be kind enough to suggest schools that would value academics, I guess on its own or something. I would also like to add I’m Asian, which I hear makes it harder for me -___-</p>

<p>I’m just so confused about my chances anywhere >.<</p>

<p>Well, depends on what your definition of prominence is. With a 2000 SAT you’d be competitive at places like Tulane, Miami (FL), Case Western, Lehigh… probably USC (California) as well. Some of these schools have low percentage of Asian Americans, you would stand out a bit better than Case or USC.</p>

<p>I actually do exactly have a 2000 on the SAT lol</p>

<p>I would define prominent, for me, as at least generally top 50. I would prefer somewhere closer to 20 or 10 if I seem fit.</p>

<p>Any other schools you can recommend for me?</p>

<p>I’d add CMU (Pittsburgh), depending on what college/major you are applying to.</p>
