Any suggestions?

<p>I've kind of hit a rut in my college search. I've found a couple of colleges that suit my tastes, but none that I really love, so I'm turning to you for help.</p>

<p>I'm really interested in Physics, Chemistry, and Art. (also, the art part is really important to me, it's not like just for fun.) I like places in/near cities. I prefer a smaller (but not too small) number of students, and a more liberal environment. My ACT superscore is a 34, un-superscored (I couldn't think of a word for it) 33. I have an unweighted gpa of 3.89.</p>

<p>What about:
WashU, UChicago, Northwestern, NYU, UPenn, or Johns Hopkins?</p>

<p>What’s your in state school? How much can you afford?</p>

<p>Seriously look into Case Western. It fits all of your criteria, and accepts over half of all students. Physics and chem are outstanding there, and it hits that sweet spot for not too big, not too small schools since it only has about 4,400 undergrads. The school is a research powerhouse with ample opportunities for undergraduate participation and it’s right next to the Cleveland Institute of Art and Design where I believe CWRU students can take classes. </p>

<p>Other schools to look into:
-Santa Clara University (right in the heart of Silicon Valley)
-Illinois Institute of Technology
-Tulane
-University of Rochester
-Brandeis
-Harvey Mudd (reach for almost everyone)
-Tufts
-Wake Forest
-University of Denver</p>
