Hi there,
I’m trying to come up with a small list of colleges to apply to - my school restricts applications to only Seven names…
I’m a female International student - I attend a United World College (UWC)- and would love to continue my education in the US but would need considerable aid (my parents can afford at a strech 20k/year).
I would prefer a LAC, not worried about size and location. No major decided yet, possibly English/Media/Film.
My Stats:
IB -predicted 38/42 (with a possible extra 2 points), all 6s at HL (English, World History, Economics), and mainly 7s SL
SAT -1460 (ERW 760, Math 700)
EC - many (of course, like all UWC students), including a Uganda service trip, learning Sign Language to help at brain injury center, creative writing prizes, working at marine rescue center etc.
-Fluent 2 languages, good third.
I’m not terribly familiar with US system but… Right now considering:
Reaches - Middlebury (ED?), Williams and one of the Claremont Colleges. (which one would be better chance for aid and considering my stats?)
Targets: Barnard, Colby, Skidmore, Davidson, Macalester, Bates, Kenyon, Richmond
Safeties: Uni Florida, Uni Rochester, Trinity (?)
Does my list make sense, did I miss potential targets and how do I narrow it to seven applications? Please help if you can…
