What are my chances at transferring to Cornell/USC/Georgetown?

I'm currently a freshman at a West Coast Private and I am in the process of transferring. I'm just curious what you guys think my chances are at transferring, as I know some members on WSO have had previous experience with the process. Here are my stats

College GPA: 3.93 Credits: 17 fall, 18 spring, 10 AP HS GPA 3.33 (Terrible freshman and sophomore year, over 4.0 senior year) ACT: 29 Recommendations: Great, teachers at my uni love me, have two so far may go for 3 EC's: Nothing amazing, couple clubs, one business oriented Essay's: Solid

Intended Major USC: Marshall Cornell: Econ Georgetown: MSB

I considered doing so for awhile but I concluded that I'd be fine staying at my current school for another year. It isn't necessarily a high risk maneuver as I have another year to transfer if I fail this year.
