<p>i know what my reach schools are, but i need some more match schools. right now they are rhodes, bryn mawr. please more suggestions!
i'm interested in internatinoal relations and languages.</p>
<p>GPA: 4.19 (weighted)
ACT: 31
SAT: 700 verbal, 600 math, 720 writing</p>
<p>Middlebury, Georgetown, Tufts, Lafayette.</p>
<p>would i not need to call georgetown a reach?</p>
<p>Both Georgetown and Middlebury are not easy to get into and you should consider carefully whether they are truly matches or reaches.</p>
<p>Georgetown, Middlebury, and Tufts would all be reaches.</p>
<p>delaware, maryland</p>
<p>Boston University</p>
<p>here's some more to consider about me:
i live in alabama
my main ecs are scholars bowl and my political awareness club (which i'm co-president of)
i am a third year french and spanish student, and a 4th year latin student
my weighted GPA should have gone up a bit
NHS, FHS, LHS, most likely SHS </p>
<p>liberal arts colleges are nice too! oh and i like staying a little closer to home than say um vermont</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>Elon in NC?</p>
<p>I was rejected from Georgetown with higher stats. It's a lot more competitive than people give it credit for... 22% acceptance rate (as of last year's US News guide, and like any other school, probably gaining popularity with every passing year). </p>
<p>Tulane is coming to mind... That might lean towards being more of a reach, but it's certainly reasonable, and I think they're working to increase interest and enrollment since Katrina hit. </p>
<p>I would suggest applying to schools a little farther from home... Your location could actually work in your favor. (Colleges like having students from all 50 states... being from Alabama would probably make you a more attractive applicant in some cases.) If you really don't want to go all the way up to New England :), there are plenty of great liberal arts colleges in Pennsylvania. Bucknell, Franklin and Marshall, and Gettysburg are three that may be viable matches for you.</p>
<p>Macalester might be good; being from Alabama makes you diverse at many northern schools. Might help you a bit.</p>
<p>Nearer to home: maybe U Richmond?</p>
<p>lafayette
goucher</p>
<p>thanks so much! i am actually looking at Elon more. bucknell looks promising too</p>
<p>? davidson?</p>
<p>^ Soo not a match. I wish it were easier to get into</p>
<p>yeah, davidson has like a 27% acceptance rate
so not a match
i think i've chosen marlboro (yeah it's far away) for my other match</p>
<p>While you are looking at Marlboro come check out Bennington, it's awesome!!</p>
