<p>looking to major in either english, rhetoric, or communications. does anyone have any suggestions for schools that match my resume?</p>

<p>bump...anyone?</p>

<p>bump again. i would like some feedback. surely someone has some opinions.</p>

<p>I'm not sure about all of them, but Lewis and Clark is most likely a safety for you. Whitman will probably be a match, and Colorado College a reach. overall tho, I'm not too sure.</p>

<p>My stats were comparable to yours and I applied to L&C, Whitman and Colorado College. I thought CC was a reach for me as well, but I went last summer and took a class and took advantage of every possible opportunity to let them know how interested I was. I ended up getting into CC early decision and EA to L&C (with $$$). Withdrew application from Whitman when I got into CC but am pretty sure it was a match. I can't wait to get to CC in the fall...summer program made me love it even more...but the block plan has to be the right way to learn for you. Good luck!</p>

<p>I think you have really great chances everywhere on that list except maybe Oberlin, and you aren't out of the running there either. If you can write well I don't think CC will be a reach for you. I think you have a great list, and I would be surprised if you see very many rejection letters.</p>

<p>I'd say you got a bunch of matches over there although Oberlin seems to be a reach.</p>
