cornell (ed),
iowa state (autoadmission)
university of iowa (auto admission)
umn
uw madison

gpa: 3.6
act: 33
36 credits of DE, 35ish this yr, 1 AP, 7 honors
will hopefully get my associates
prospective public health major! might switch to polisci

curriculum: would prefer something more open! i also am thinking of a minor in sociology, art or education so having courses like that availible?

size: i don't care

costs: im low income so i def need a crap ton of aid.
Additionally: i'd also love a school with a good POC and Muslim community!!!!! Also a school that has good ties to community service as a whole.
I know my gpa isnt the best, but i did have a lot of extenuating cirumstances with my gpa that contributed to it. I also have pretty good extracurriculars (mostly state/natl with community impact. I think i need help balancing my list and adding more reaches/targets.

Cornell is ok for public health, I would definitely not ED there unless you really want to go to an ivy - but there are better ivys for public health.

uw madison don't got a lot of diversity but it's decent.

Reach: Brown, UPenn, Johns Hopkins, NYU

Target: BU, Wellesley (if ur female)

I would also do GW University

I've probably already recomemnded a bunch of schools to you, but here are some hopefully different ones: University of Maryland, Tufts, University of Notre Dame, Washington University in St. Louis, Tulane, Georgetown, University of Miami, Case Western, University of Michigan, University of Rochester, Rice University, and Emory. If a school doesn't explicitly have public health, I'd check to see id they have medical sociology/anthropology or health systems, because they're likely to be similar topic-wise. or anything with "people + health" in the title.
