I know I'm not Ivy material, nor could I afford them. What schools should I be looking at though (in the US and Canada)?
 
like your Georgetowns, ohio states, New york universitys.
types of schools llike that.



and I think you can get into a tier one, i got into a tier one, and you did waaaaaaay better than me.
 
You're solid for "second tier" schools.

Consider the following:

Colgate University (great hockey team...)
University of Rochester
George Mason University
Brigham Young University
Rice University
Claremont Colleges
University of Western Ontario
