<p>OP, here’s an old (and hence, to be taken with a few grains of salt) thread that may suggest some other merit-offering and hence more affordable LACs for you to consider. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/881237-ivy-caliber-safeties-matches-condensed-advice.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/881237-ivy-caliber-safeties-matches-condensed-advice.html</a> . The OP on that thread ended up at Swarthmore, so I’d expect her taste to be similar to yours. </p>
<p>You can also take a look at the Pomona forum here on CC and see where else Pomona hopefuls were applying.</p>
