<p>This year I am founding a Fashion Club which will produce a magazine.</p>

<p>I have some community service but only about 20 hours, and I do not really have anything amazing. </p>

<p>I have an intrest in anthropology but do not only list schools which you know about the anthropology department please! No rural schools. I go to a high school whih has 2100 students, I want a college that is larger so I can feel like I can always meet new people. I know everyone in my grade and most the other. However, I prefer smaller classes and love class discussions. I want to go to a school with a campus, not like nyu etc. I would prefer to be on the east coast or maybe in Chicago. I live in California, but I want to leave. Don't yell at me I just love the history of the east coast and love seasons and snow. Please list schools and list whether it would be a reach, match, or safety thanks!</p>

<p>Is money an issue?</p>

<p>Not a huge issue, I’d like all schools to be listed and I’d look it up.</p>

<p>Look at Barnard.</p>

<p>Barnard is very hard to get into. My niece…a NMF, IB student, valedictorian, with good e/c’s didn’t get in.</p>
