<p>Hey everyone I'm a college junior from new england and i'm starting all of my tours and admission stuff now. I have a GPA that's slightly under a 4.0 on a weighted scale (i take four APs at the moment, will be taking three next year) and my SAT score is a 2190 (probably going to take it again). I know what i want in a school, and I'm looking at a a bunch, but i just wanted to make sure that the ones I'm looking into fit my criteria. I want a school that has rigorous classes, a traditional campus feel, a pretty large amount of students, and good sports teams that the students rally around. A classic, standard "college town" is a huge plus as well. Also, I want to go to a place with kids a lot like me: kids who can have intellectual and philosophical conversations, but who also love to go out at night and socialize and like to party a little bit too. Also, I don't really want to go anywhere that's all the way across the country. The places I'm looking at are: UPenn (reach), Villanova, Georgetown, UMichigan, UVa, William and Mary, UNC-CH, Duke (reach), and Syracuse (safety). Do these schools match my criteria for the most part? And if not, where else should I look? Thanks for the input!</p>
<p>based on your criteria Duke and Umich look good. Be careful though, Umich doesn’t give much money to out of staters</p>
