<p>Well, I keep searching for colleges though College Board, but I always get either bored weeding out the ones that don't seem like a good fit or annoyed becasue I pick to many. Anyway, here are some details:</p>
<ul>
<li>Live in Northern VA</li>
<li>Middle Class</li>
<li>4.0, 3rd in class, and about a 2100 SAT</li>
<li>Plenty of ECs, but stong passion for Theatre</li>
<li>Enjoy a smaller school, like William and Mary</li>
<li>Looking for school on this half of county</li>
<li>Have no idea of major (English/Psychology/Law/Theatre)= ***</li>
</ul>
<p>So, if you have any ideas, please let me know. :)</p>
<p>UVA would be in state for you. I’m not sure if it’s harder to get into UVA from NoVa than other parts of VA but even then you’ve got extremely good stats. Though I’m sure you’ve already considered it, don’t discount the fact that you’d get in state tuition.</p>
<p>Now excuse me while I go wipe the vomit off my mouth from pitching UVA to someone.</p>
<p>I am planning to apply to UVA, for it is an awesome instate school, cheap tuition, and my father has a housenear by with a a two room basement…AKA I don’t have to live on campus at all if I did not want to(but I do). And it is generally easier, for like they say, at places like William and Mary and UVA that 1/3 is out of state, 1/3 is from northern VA, and 1/3 is from the rest of VA. :P</p>
<p>Um, I don’t think my stats are nearly good enough for any Ivies. I am such a cliche bisexual theatre kid. However, I am still planning on applying to Darthmouth, maybe. Any more ideas about ivies though?</p>
<p>Ivies would be a major reach unless you have some kind of hook you haven’t mentioned. I saw on another thread that it is harder to get into UVA from NOVA primarily due to intense competition in that area. Add Kenyon, Oberlin and Denison to your consideration list.</p>
<p>Hmm, I am not so sure Erin’s Dad. I have seen plenty of kids get in to UVA from my school with lower stats and less ECs. Anyway, I was thinking about Oberlin.</p>
<p>“I am such a cliche bisexual theatre kid.”
You might be happy at U Chicago. 4000 UGs, and you would find many kids there like you. They love smart, “quirky” students who have shown a commitment to their passions. And you cant get a better Liberal Arts education than Chicago offers.
I agree with the suggestions of Wesleyan and Amherst as well.</p>
<p>you may want to pose some questions on CC’s UChicago forum… A recent graduate[?] Unalove, can give you a lot of insight. She has also contributed heavily to the FAQ’s thread at the top of the Chicago threads. Good luck.</p>
<p>3rd in my class of only like 215. And the 2100 is completely projected. I got an 1880 the first time, but I went though a much of prep. However, even if it is 2100, that is not good enough for Yale. :P</p>
I have heard of almost all of those, so i will look up more details.</p>
However, I am still planning on applying to Darthmouth, maybe. Any more ideas about ivies though?</p>
