I'm compiling my list of schools to apply to this fall. Also, my major GPA is a 3.6 if that helps my chances at all with any of these schools. (I'm not an URM).

Any input on how I might fair at these schools and if it will help my chances to apply early decision to any of them?

Cornell
Fordham
Northwestern
Georgetown

You're probably going to have better luck in the "What Are My Chances" forum.

You are in at Fordham, perhaps Cornell

maybe Northwestern. GPA is low. and very low chance at Gtown (unless you consider part time)

We are almost number twins (I have a slightly higher GPA) with similar work experience. I got into Cornell, waitlisted at Northwestern and Georgetown. No clue about Fordham but my guess is in there. I think EDing to Georgetown might help your cause, Cornell doesn't offer ED only EA. Northwestern doesn't seem willing to dip too much for ED though they might for really quality work experience. I'm happy to elaborate on my specific interactions with each school if you want to PM me. Good luck.
