<p>Hey, I have a pretty good list of schools that I consider match/reach, so I was wondering if you guys could help out with my safety search. What I am lookin' for is a financial safety (i.e. full-ride possibility). Below is what I'm looking for, and below that are my stats. Thanks! :D</p>
<p>Size: Small to medium. 2,000-8,000 would be best, though I could go bigger.</p>
<p>Location: medium to large city. I would prefer a city that's at least 50,000+ people</p>
<p>Surroundings: Beautiful, with lots of green and trees (or in other words, at least a pretty town). Weather isn't an issue, except I don't really want it really hot (i.e. not Texas/Cally) . I love winters. Want to be able to at least drive someplace (i.e. within 1 hour) to go camping,fishing, etc.</p>
<p>People: Prefer a socioeconomic and ethnic mix of people. I come from a public school of 500 where there are literally about 6 non-white people...so I'm looking for some variety (maybe lots of international students).</p>
<p>STATS
================================================== ======
I'm a white male from WA state (eastern part, not Seattle), and will be a senior.</p>
<p>SAT I NEW: 2200 (740 M, 730 CR, 730 W)
SAT II: (760 Chem, 800 IIC)</p>
<p>My school doesn't offer AP's, but I'll graduate w/ an Associate of Arts degree from my local community college. But, if this is going to cause problems (i.e. transfer student status) then I won't accept the degree, and I'll just have a bunch of credits.</p>
