What are my chances at getting a scholarship?

Question

I am an African American female entering my junior year at a school of the arts high school as a vocal major. I have a 3.8 unweighted GPA (on a 4.0 scale) and a 4.3 weighted HPA (on a 5.0 scale). I have taken 3 AP classes so far (human geo., world history, and music theory) and passed the exams, but before I graduated I plan on taking 9. I am involved in a number of extra curriculars, especially in the arts community. I also do a lot of community service. I am taking my SAT and ACT this coming year, but right now I am enrolled in a SAT summer workshop. For college, I am interested in music performance, law, journalism, and history. The schools I'm considering are Brown, Emerson, BC, BU, NYU, Wellsley, etc...

I need to have almost all of tuition paid for, whether it be through financial aid or scholarships. What are my chances of this happening? And what are some other schools that would be willing to give me a free ride?

Wow, you have an impressive resume there. I found out there are some scholarships you can apply for at http://www.scholarship-listings.com

I applied for all of them yesterday, and I'm hoping I get one! (:

Anyone regardless of what you are studying or what school you go to (as long as you are going or will be going to a college) can qualify. They range from $10k to $50k I think.
