According to Princeton Review, the middle 50% SAT score for Northwestern is:

Writing: 670-750
So if we add up the lowest of the middle 50% scores, we have 670+690+670. This equals 2030. Which is higher than her score.

For Columbia, the middle 50% scored between 2100 and 2330 (according to Columbia's website)

Looking up Barnard, Brown, and University of Michigan, they are all pretty high.

This is not meant to put down, just stating facts.
I'm actually really, really familiar with the facts of two of those colleges in particular. Private schools have the benefit, that most state universities don't, of being very holistic in their admissions processes. At least one of those colleges above does not include athletic recruits in their SAT accounting, which probably skews it up a little bit.

My niece starts the admissions process (officially) in two years. Eeeek!
