<p>again my list...
Georgetown
Kenyon
Boston College
Colorado College
Whitman
University of Vermont
Suny Geneseo
Denison</p>

<p>-Which ones do you think i can get in? </p>

<p>-Any other suggestions based on my list so far? </p>

<p>-I'm looking to major in some kind of international relations/business/policy something and hopefully double major in language. I want to graduate fluent in as many languages as possible and then hopefully go travel the world and use them. along those lines im looking for schools with great study abroad programs as well.</p>

<p>-As unimportant as it may sound I'm really interested in schools that have snowboarding nearby or some kind of club or snowboarding culture... groups that make trips or something. Thus uvm, and cc. I was thinking about maybe throwing in dartmouth as a rediculous reach mostly because it has its own mountain but I'm not really feeling paying 70 some dollars for a rejection letter haha. </p>

<p>-I'm also kinda nervous about financial aid do you think that my stats will get me any anywhere? In the end i feel like my decission will come down to what school will help me out with merit aid so any suggestions for schools that my stats might qualify me in that
area would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>thanks so much!</p>
