<p>All suggestions are welcome, particularly those on the East Coast.</p>
<p>If it makes a difference, I’m a biracial (50% Mexican, 50% Italian) female.</p>
<p>If I remember correctly, Hamilton College has a pretty decent journalism program. The curriculum there is basically open, but I believe that you would have to take certain writing intensive classes to graduate (but you get to choose which they are) even if your major has nothing to do with writing. The point is, Hamilton is big on writing. </p>
<p>I’m not sure about how much you want to spend on your college education, but Hamilton does not offer merit aid (as far as I am aware). However, the college does meet 100% need.</p>
<p>Thanks! @Latin4Life!</p>
<p>You’re welcome, @MissWorld7! I also thought it would be good for you because you would still be academically challenged there.</p>
<p>Columbia, UNC-CH, Syracuse (think merit), OhioU (think merit), UMaryland-CP (think merit).</p>
