<p>About 6 months before I apply to colleges... Figured I should probably get started on a list. I already know some schools I like so I will give some and see what you guys think about the coherency of the list and what schools could be added, especially matches/safeties.</p>
<p>Amherst
Brown
Pomona
Hamilton
Stanford
Chicago
Reed
Williams</p>
<p>Those are a couple schools I've looked into and found attractive, please help me in getting some matches or safeties...and some other similar reach schools.</p>
<p>Hard to say without stats and criteria that you’ve thought about. You might want to look more at mid-western LACs----Grinnel and Kenyon, for example. Also Colby. If you want more artsy, maybe Skidmore. Check which ones seem to care about demonstrated interest and schedule some interviews; then you can plan to visit places that are close to each other. If you go to Hamilton, check out Colgate. Middlebury is only about two hours from Williams. Etc.</p>
<p>Hi 676 and welcome! Please post your anticipated SATs, GPA, class rank, likes and dislikes, geographic limitations, financial concerns, preferred setting and ambience, etc.</p>
<p>So I have little financial or geographical concerns. 3.85 UW, retaking my 2040 SAT, looking to break 2100, top 10% of class, URM–AA. I want a school with a pretty relaxed curriculum, quite intellectual, very strong profs, well known enough to get a job…</p>
