有沒有人就讀美國名校?

Hi everyone~~
I'm going to be a senior this year in NY. so rite now i'm doing my college search. I really wanna go to one of the top tier colleges in US and i think i might have a chance since my GPA's pretty good. So please give me some advice if any of u went to college or graduate school in the US, doesn't have to be an Ivy League school. Just wanna get some information so i'll have an idea on where i should apply. Thanks everyone!!
