Too late to start...?

I’ve only recently begun joining clubs (I’m in the 10th grade). I’ve started to do Mouse Squad (organization where you fix computer and other technical problems in the school), Math team, Debate, Student Council, Ping Pong, and probably going to do Guitar club. I think I can get some leadership roles by next year with dedication. I also have done other various things. I went over to China during the summer and helped some kids with English. I was in a Carnegie Hall program where we interacted with students around the world and was even invited to perform. I was in a small Korean-American organization where we helped out the local community. I tutored some kids. If I start start changing for the better now, will I be able to attend Columbia? (Disregarding academic performance, recommendation letters, etc.) :(
