Admission likelihood is always a range, with a confidence level.

Princeton University

Reach
4–9%Low confidence
0%50%100%

Excellent profile, but ~4% admit rates make this a reach for everyone — and Princeton has no undergrad business major.

University of Pennsylvania

Reach
6–12%Low confidence
0%50%100%

Wharton is a superb fit for your founder story, but admit rates are single digits and aid is need-aware for internationals.

University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Reach
12–23%Medium confidence
0%50%100%

Ross is strong for business and your stats sit above the mid-range, but the international pool is far more competitive than the ~18% overall rate suggests, and aid for internationals is very limited.

Boston University

Likely
45–65%Medium confidence
0%50%100%

Your SAT is at the top of BU's range and Questrom fits well; the friendliest odds on your current list.

NYU Shanghai

Reach
8–18%Low confidence
0%50%100%

Your SAT 1520 sits inside the admitted band and the founder story fits its business focus, but single-digit admit rates keep this a reach; you'd study in Shanghai, China, while the review is US-style holistic via the Common App.

Campus in China · US-system admissions

This is New York University's campus in Shanghai, China — admissions don't follow the local system. You apply through the Common App and are reviewed holistically, like a US applicant, so the odds above use the US methodology.

Deadlines are dated to your graduation year and indicative — always confirm the exact date on each school's official admissions site. Binding = Early Decision: if admitted you must enrol and withdraw other applications.
