<p>I need help choosing a solid list of colleges to apply to this year. </p>
<p>Income bracket is 80,000 to 100,000, which means aid would be nice.
This means the schools that are need blind for internationals (Yale, Harvard, Princeton, MIT, Dartmouth, Amherst, Williams, Middlebury) I am definitely applying to. Other reach schools I am interested in are UChicago, UPenn, Stanford, Duke (not applying for aid as these schools are need-aware)</p>
<p>Only thing is, as everyone knows, these are extremely competitive colleges. Could anyone help me consolidate a nice list of safeties and reach colleges I could apply to? Again, for these schools I wouldn't apply for aid and try to get a scholarship from my native country. </p>
<p>Interested in science, but not engineering. Chemistry, Molecular Biology, etc.</p>
