* Feel Free to recommend some other schools as well.</p>
<p>The larger schools will tend to be numbers focused. Your background is something that can be of interest to those schools who are more holistic in their admissions. Make sure you write a note to those teachers and your GC giving recs and list what you ECs have been including some details on your construction and farm experiences.<br>
Do you have your finances in place? Are you going to need fin aid, merit aid? Since you have a brother at a private school already, your parents should know what it costs. Make sure you and they are on the same page.<br>
Why do you think your list is weak? Do you like those schools? You seem to be focusing on the north east and OOS. What is your state school, and why isn't it listed? I can suggest Fordham, Villanova, Drexel, some SUNYs, off hand, but need a bit more info as to what you ideally want. Are you looking for some reaches? Some true safeties? Want to go smaller, larger, in city, looking to expand the geographics? What is your ideal school?</p>
<p>Ya i am looking for a school with a good business program, located in the northeast. A place like Bentley is ideal, but the costs could propose a problem. My brother went there a while ago, and he had a scholarship so it was different.<br>
UVM, is my state school but i really do not like it because it is known for having steep in-state rates, and they don't have a great business dept.</p>
