Given your stats and interests, I would suggest Northwestern, Brown, Case Western and UPenn.
@fivesages waiiit Northwestern and Brown for a match school?? 
Do you mean reach?
I didn’t see you were looking for match. If you happened to go ED, one of your reaches could possibly be a match for you. You have a strong profile. I would be surprised if you don’t get into one of your reach schools. Good luck!
Seconding UPenn.
Wait, you’re a poster whose parents won’t pay? Or can’t pay?
@MYOS1634 no they were just being vague, but they said around 30-35k is fine
OK - run the NPC on all our suggestions then. (If your parents hadn’t been able to pay we’d have suggested other ideas.)
Make sure your parents mean 1) out of pocket (from income and savings - if they don’t have savings, ask if they can, right now, set as much each month as they expect to pay next year. It’ll be a good test to see if it’s actually feasible or if you/they have to adjust their budget) and 2) for each year.
@merc81 --U Penn?
OP specifically said “no cutthroat environment.”
They have had almost 15 suicides in the past few years, correct? Doesn’t sound like a place OP would want to be.
14 in 4 years I think. So yes Upenn doesn’t match OP’s criteria 
@carachel2 oh…yikes that sounds alarming. However, there’s little chance I would even be admitted lol so no worries there. @MYOS1634 unfortunately my parents don’t tell me the specifics of how much they can pay. They just said 30-35K, so I’m assuming that the reason would be that 100% wouldn’t be from out of pocket. They do mean 30-35K per year, though, not just total.
Is there an easier way to do NPC for multiple colleges? My parents would have to fill out the majority themselves, since they don’t want me to know about the family finances. I’ve kind of got a long list of colleges so I was wondering if they could just input their information once and get results for multiple colleges, instead of typing each field out 10+ times.
Try to ascertain how much is out of pocket, because they may not be approved for loans (or, worse, may be for one year and then not…) and it may make things tough since you may end up with few affordable colleges in the Spring, which would be too bad!
If several of the colleges use the College Board NPC platform, then they can make one account to save the information to put into the various NPCs that use the College Board NPC platform. Each college must still be run individually, since they have different calculations within the same platform, but it will save having to re-enter the same data each time. Some other NPC platforms may offer similar capability if there are multiple colleges using them.
https://collegeabacus.org/ web scrapes up to three colleges’ NPCs at a time, which can help if the NPCs are not on the same NPC platform that allows saving the data for multiple college NPC runs.
Ok. I’ll try talking to my mom, she miiight be a little more giving in telling me how much would be out of pocket. If she doesn’t give, what would you suggest I do?
@ucbalumnus thank you!! I’ll check that out right away.
Try UMinn Twin Cities, Northeastern, Rutgers, Wisconsin- Madison, or other schools. LACs are good too.
UT’s are good for premed too but I guess u want OOS schools…
@ucbalumnus wait–the cb website is a little confusing. If I just put information in one college’s CB NPC, does it save to my account and autofill the next NPC?
@SREE33 thanks! I actually am considering UT. In fact, I already have a list of in-state schools I’m applying to. I just wanted to have a couple oos too so that’s why I started this thread. Texas-wise, I’m applying to UT, UTD, and Rice.
good luck
I’ve recommended schools that fit as many as the OP’s criteria as possible. Penn fits for its top offerings in psychology, urban environment and northern clime. I’ve also recommended LACs for their supportive environments, but they meet fewer of her overall criteria.
Regarding the unfortunate cases of suicides at Penn, I’ve personally not studied their frequency with respect to understanding their statistical implications in terms of what they may reveal about about the environment at Penn in general.
In terms of observation regarding all her potential choices, her efforts to this point have brought her to near the statistical top for mostly all schools. For this reason, her degree of personal stress may be largely under her control.
