Help A Current Junior Find Schools to Consider?

This is less a “chance me” and more “can I get some recommendations to colleges where my stats fit?” thread. This would be super helpful, as I feel like I’m completely overlooking some colleges that I don’t even know about yet! Numbers in parenthesis are either grades on the AP test or years that I participated in classes/ECs

Current UW/W GPA (Frosh+Soph years): 3.97UW/4.0W (using College Board 100 scale -> 4.0 scale conversion chart)
APs: WHAP (3), AP Lit (4-5 estimate), AP Lang (4-5 estimate), APUSH (3 estimate)
College Credit Courses: Intro to American Music Theater (10), French 4 (12), Career and Financial Management (combines 2 courses into 1 year - 12), possibly Statistics (12). Am also looking into doing a community college course during next summer.
Desired Major: Communication Studies (or an equivalent), with hopes to be a freelance social media manager for the self-published writer/author community (an underserved community, and I know this because my mom is part of it)
PSAT score:
SAT score:
Notable ECs:

  • marching band (9-12, brass captain and leadership team member in 11)
  • musical (9-12, lead in 10)
  • Knightengals (school’s female, by-audition a capella group) (9-12, soloist in 9)
  • Emerging Knights (school’s leadership team) (11-12)
  • NHS (10-12)
    Notable Awards/Achievement:
  • HOBY Alumni '16
  • Participated in University at Buffalo (SUNY Buffalo)'s High School Gene Annotation project (10)

Preferences for colleges are that they are in NE part of the US (near/in New York preferably), are cheap/give heaps of merit aid/need-based aid, and possibly have a good Honors program (not a necessity but would be nice to have)

I am currently considering SUNY Brockport, SUNY Fredonia, Kent State University (my mom has alum status), Slippery Rock University, Mass. College of Liberal Arts, and possibly Otterbein University.

OMG I accidentally pressed post instead of save as draft! I didn’t want to post this without at least my PSAT score, which I’m going to take in October!

Oh well, maybe you all could help me find some potential colleges, and then when I get my PSAT score back I will edit the post and possibly narrow down the suggestions? So sorry to post this without a PSAT or SAT score!
