Good college on the west coast for an average student?

<p>Santa Clara, Loyola Marymount, Occidental, maybe one of the Claremonts.</p>

<p>Except for this part…</p>

<p>“It would help if the college has a low out of state tuition rate or offers a lot of scholarships for students like me.”</p>

<p>Oregon and Washington might be better for that. </p>

<p>Maybe Gonzaga, University of Portland, Willamette.</p>
