College List Help?

<p>I'm a high school senior. White female, 30 ACT, 4.1 GPA, 4 AP Classes (out of 5 offered at my school), all other classes honors. Leadership in many clubs, service participation, many summer programs as well. </p>

<p>Schools I'm Applying To:
Butler
Earlham
Belmont
UNC Asheville
Duquesne
Transylvania</p>

<p>I also might be applying to Oglethorpe and UVA. Not sure yet.</p>

<p>Things I'm Looking For:
-small to medium size school
-south/midwest area
-political science major, with good acceptance into law schools
-language programs available as well
-residential life is strong
-not a party school or with a drug culture (as dry as possible)
-urban/suburban
-political campus
-public or private
-welcoming community, not very preppy</p>

<p>What do you think? Any other colleges to consider? </p>

<p>Thanks everyone! </p>

<p>New College of Florida, Guilford, Rhodes, Kenyon, Goucher, College of Wooster, St. Mary’s, Eckerd . . . some of those colleges might offer you very nice scholarship packages, also.</p>

<p>What is your home state? What can your family afford?</p>

<p>Also, is this a balanced list with matches and reaches? </p>

<p>I’m from KY. And as for now, my parents just told me to apply and see what happens with scholarships/financial aid. Obviously nothing ridiculously expensive though. </p>

<p>

That way is frought with peril. How much can your family afford? Are you prepared to attend a CC if you can’t afford anywhere else? Go to the Financial Aid forum and look at the pinned threads for some options which might offer full tuition.</p>

<p>I’ve already applied, been admitted to, and given almost a full ride to the state university, so I’ll definitely be going there at least. Another of my safeties has also offered almost the same package so there really won’t be any need for a CC. </p>

<p>Good to read. I was concerned when I didn’t see anything mentioned with your list.</p>

<p>Thanks! Sorry for not originally including that! </p>

<p>Maybe Truman State?</p>
