<p>Oberlin and Lafayette would be safeties for you. Kenyon, Hamilton, NYU, and Emory are very likely. Wesleyan would be your biggest reach, and even then you have a shot. Good luck!</p>

7

<p>thank you! good luck to you too! :)</p>

<p>Hey Bwaygirl, I have about the same EC’s, grades, and SAT’s as you. If I were you I would say that if you get in(which I think you will) go to Oberlin or Wesleyan those 2 seem like the coolest schools on your list.</p>

9

<p>might also look at Colgate and Holy Cross both higher ranked than Lafayette. HC has nice campus 1 hour from Boston with great alumni network.</p>

10

<p>thanks all!
par72: i actually looked at both schools but didn’t like the vibe as much, just my opinion</p>

11

<p>anyone else?? bumpp</p>

12

<p>Emory: High Match
Kenyon: Match
Wesleyan: Reach
Hamilton: Reach
Oberlin: Match
NYU: Match
Lafayette: Safety</p>

<p>Wesleyan and Hamilton seem to be your 2 reaches. If you apply ED2 to either of them, you would get the slight ED advantage. Does anyone else have more info on these two schools to be able to say where she has a better shot? Good luck</p>

13

<p>thank you!!! i really love both those schools, so fingers crossed!</p>

14

<p>No prob, Bway Girl. Hope it works out for you</p>

<p>thanks! :)</p>
