Are your parents okay with paying $280,000 for four years of university? If not, then you need to run the NPC on each of the schools that you are applying to and make sure that your parents are okay with the result. Be aware that if you might major in a field that needs a Master’s or other graduate work, then it might be better not to use up all of your college funds in the first 4 years.

You probably should also list your safeties, because most of the list that you have provided (everything past the first two) are probably reaches or high reaches.

I am sort of curious regarding what you want in a school. As one example, to me Amherst College and U. of Chicago are very different from each other. Chicago and Georgetown are in big cities. Amherst and Cornell are in small towns. Cornell gets buckets of snow, W&M gets very little, … Have you visited each of these?
