<p>If you got into Ann Arbor, I don’t think Miami should be a problem for you. Match for Chapel Hill also. Your stats look incredibly good; GPA, SAT, rank, and extra-curriculars. To be honest, you seem like Ivy material, and with that being said I don’t think those other schools should be a problem (I’m not really familiar with some of them, but I’m pretty confident you’ll get in) :)</p>
<p>Thanks. And to all of you who mentioned Ivy League, I just feel like they wouldn’t be a match for me, both financially and socially. I want the full college experience, including big time sports (I’m a sports junkie), and I feel like I could get close to an equal education elsewhere at a place that has all the other things I’m looking for. Additionally, they are too small in numbers.</p>
<ol>
<li>Ithaca College (?)</li>
<li>University of Virginia (match) </li>
<li>UCLA (match-high match)</li>
<li>UNC Chapel Hill (High match maybe? It’ll be tough if you’re oos)</li>
<li>University of Washington - Seattle (?)</li>
<li>Clemson University (?)</li>
<li>University of Maryland - College Park (safety-low match)</li>
<li>University of Miami (safety-lowmatch)</li>
<li>UC San Diego (low match-match)</li>
</ol>
<p>You have awesome stats man. You shouldn’t have a problem getting in to a great college!</p>
<p>If you can I think you should try to apply to some more competitive schools. You are very accomplished and are selling yourself short with your list of schools. I would say look into schools that are Ivy caliber or slightly lower such as Duke, Johns Hopkins or Georgetown.</p>
<p>i do not know what you want to major in but you have the stats to get into much better schools, so if you can try to fill out the apps.</p>
<p>Thanks you guys. I got another acceptance today, from Clemson with a 14k/yr scholarship. (: So I guess you only need to chance the 8 I haven’t heard from yet.</p>
<p>Anyone else have any opinions? Do you know which of these schools are party schools, which ones are “snob” schools, which campuses are really pretty, etc?</p>
<p>I agree with everyone who posted. You have solid chances everywhere. I’m just curious… why didn’t you apply to any of the top 20 schools?</p>
<p>lpfun: I need the merit-aid scholarships, and most of the top schools only offer need-based. I’m really happy with where I’ve applied, though.</p>
