<p>Right now I only know that I'm applying to some reach schools and some safe school, but I have no schools in the middle that I'm applying to.</p>
<p>I have a 97 weighted GPA, a 93 unweighted. My SAT score is 1800. I have some community service/club activity; some people have more, some people have less. I want to stay within New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. Can you suggest any schools?</p>
<p>I went to Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA. It was a great school. Small, private liberal arts place. Not sure if it would be considered a reach or somewhere in between in your case - I transferred from another college so my high school transcripts weren’t looked at too closely. </p>
<p>I also went to Arcadia University down near Philadelphia for a year. It is also a small, private liberal arts school but less selective than Moravian. Very cute campus with a small castle in the middle. Excellent study abroad programs if you’re interested in that.</p>
<p>I’ve always been a commuter so I can’t comment much on the social life of those two schools.</p>
<p>Kutztown U would be a safety, it’s a huge party school. One of the worst in the areas. Depending on which campus, Penn State might be a good choice. Penn State University Park is a reach, but they have many other campuses. Might be expensive depending which state you actually live in. </p>
<p>Lafayette and Muhlenberg College (Easton and Allentown, PA, respectively) are both good, but might be a reach. Cedar Crest College might be somewhere in the middle, but it’s an all-girls school (though under some circumstances guys may take courses but not live on campus or be too involved in extracurriculars). </p>
<p>Those are the ones I know the most about since I have either researched them, attended them, or know a lot of people that went to them. Hopefully that helps a little bit.</p>
<p>Also, grades and SAT scores aren’t the only thing considered, so it’s hard to judge which are a good fit without knowing your extracurriculars and personal statement. I also never took the SATs because I went to community college right out of high school, and so the SAT requirement was waived there after. Therefore I do not know much about what is a good SAT score in order to be admitted. I was judging mostly on your GPA.</p>
<p>What about your ECs?</p>
