<p>LAC Plug:
-Yeah I feel like Vassar would fit your criteria really well even though it IS an LAC/small.
-Claremont colleges in California might be the balance between 5000+ students while still the LAC vibe which seems like it would align itself with what you’ve specified…
-Swarthmore has a super active LGBT community and is definitely geeky but it definitely wouldn’t be a match for a white female (no offense)… even though your stats are really impressive. If you need another reach look into Swat! (What would one of my posts be without an attempt at selling my own school :P) Yeah… if you have Reed and Chicago on there there’s no reason for you to not look into Swat…</p>
<p>I don’t think WUStL is as good as US News and World Report or whatever rankings make it out to be but… that’s just me…</p>
<p>BC is definitely conservative-leaning…</p>
<p>I’d definitely be wary of UCs/Berkley just given the nature their current budget issues… But who knows how much of an affect that stuff is having anyway…</p>
<p>Uh let’s think… matches… matches… Well given that you’re in Maryland I’m gonna suggest Hopkins just given the fact that it has incredibly strong Science program, and also quite a fantastic Humanities department as well. This to me is the best of both worlds because you get the Hopkins reputation in the sciences but you’re also getting a great education and attention in the humanities…</p>
<p>Yeah please consider LACs… lol…</p>
