Colleges & Universities University of Michigan

Will I get into any schools like Umich or NYU?

Yes I have low grades

GPA UW: 3.57

SAT: 1300

BUT

I am an entrepreneur/ inventor and have been running my own businesses, Lazerr Footwear, for years. I have several patents under my name and have received recognition. (You can see the shoes if you want https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1E5Q5-ihVT5XAo9hfcE9366y336OLmTmt5boqxsXFQH0/edit )

But my biggest selling point is that I will be appearing on the hit television show, Shark Tank later this year. The program is extremely selective and has over 10 million viewers.

What should I do to appeal to the colleges? What are my chances? Thank you.

These schools look at each applicant holistically, meaning one factor of the application cannot significantly change the outcome. It is worth a shot to apply to a handful of these schools, but be sure not to make you list reach heavy.
