im aiming to get some writing awards/also applied for a couple things for over the summer sooo yeah ik my gpa is pretty bad but i do have an upwards trend and i did take rigorous courses so idk if that makes up for it...!

also here are my other schools if u guys have any input on what else i should add:
syrcause
george washington 
fordham (EA)
penn state
american university (EA)
clemson
SDSU 
SJSU
UW
UF (EA)

for context I have a 3.24 gpa but hopefully get up to a 3.33uw senior year. took a LOT of rigorous courses (13 APs + honors (3 AP were self studied) by the end of senior yr). aiming for 1500+ SAT, rlly good ECs, I would say they're very unique. I would say I'm also a good writer and have a good rapport with a few teachers. I also have 4s and 5s on all my APs including self studied ones.

intended major is poli sci but id apply LSC for nyu. I also heard that this yr Tulane had a better ED2 cycle so im a bit stuck. visited all 3 and rlly liked the so idk. idk if its even worth applying to any of then bc my gpa is far too low.

edit: im full pay!

for context i have a 3.22 UW GPA (cooked af i know), after senior year first semester assuming i get straight As it'll be 3.33. weighted after senior year will be around 3.7. for context i go to a very rigorous school (def known to colleges) and students from my school have gotten into NYU with lower GPAs and lower SAT (i have a 1420 rn, retaking and aiming for 1500+). i would say i have rlly rlly good ECs that all align REALLY well with intended major (poli sci)

i was wondering which school id have a higher chance at EDing to and which one I should ED vs ED2 to. i know both schools are very competitive (dont fry me in the comments) but im not gonna ED to a mediocre school and i have very safe backups in my college list for EA/RD so ya. any help would be useful!! ty!
