Take a look at these statistics for NYU regarding entering freshman:

36% had h.s. GPA of 3.75 and higher

34% had h.s. GPA between 3.5 and 3.74

16% had h.s. GPA between 3.25 and 3.49

12% had h.s. GPA between 3.0 and 3.24

I think you definitely have a good shot. There is no reason you should not apply.

These are the statistics for Georgetown:

67% had h.s. GPA of 3.75 and higher

23% had h.s. GPA between 3.5 and 3.74

Once again you have a decent shot of getting in.

Your SAT scores are decent and you have a lot on your plate. I think you are a great candidate for both schools.

You have an exellent chance. you are the typical admittee: well rounded. Great GPA, great test scores and on top of that you had extracurricular activities. Now to be honest not all students with you accomplishments are admitted to these schools but I think you would be higher on the list compared to a person who has a 2.7. Good luck and I hope you get in!
