What are my chances of getting into the following colleges?
Next year will be my 3rd year in my school’s debate team. I’m also doing 200 volunteer service hours over this summer. Next year I’m taking 8 classes, which makes 4 years for major subjects (English, Math, Science, Social Studies, and Foreign Language).
Unfortunately, I neither go to any clubs in my school nor do I play any sports. :-/
I was wondering; what are my chances of getting into the following colleges?
1) any ivy league (Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth,
2) University of Texas at Austin
3) Stanford University
4) University of Pennsylvania
5) Rice University
7) New York University
8) Baylor University
9) University of Notre Dame

But, if you mean 3.2, getting into an Ivy League would be extremely hard. It would be easier if you excel in one subject in school. Start particpating in clubs, that helps a lot. Take APs too. Colleges would be happy to see that you are ahead and wanted to learn more in school.
I’m not sure about the other colleges and universities, but NYU would be fairly easier to get into. As I said before, apply to the NYU school that you think you would enjoy the most, whether its art, math, english, foreign language, etc.
that’s where i go! 🙂
i do not know about the other colleges, but keep up the volunteer hours for your resume in the future.
Consult your school counselor.
Look at the college catalogs for these universities.
Did you reallly expect that we were going to evaluate each of those colleges for you for two points?
Is that possible?
