<p>This is just from a quick cruise down the US News Nat'l Univ list: Case Western, Georgia Tech, U of Pittsburgh, U of Maryland, Drexel, U of Tulsa (the first and last are smaller schools than your others, but very good science/engineering and in larger cities)</p>

4

<p>Tufts and Holy Cross are in the Boston metropolitan area and both very strong in sciences.</p>

5

<p>Tufts would be a reach, but I agree, it's worth a shot.
Also, BU (if financial/merit aid is not necessary).</p>

6

<p>Case Western would be a high match.</p>

7

<p>Tufts, BC, NYU, and possibly Maryland OOS would be reaches. Tufts would be a BIG reach. Pitt would be a good school to consider. How about Purdue?</p>

8

<p>Since I already got into MSU, I'm looking at reaches and high matches right now. I will consider Tufts even though my chances might be very low. I need one more match now</p>

9

<p>Fordham (Rose Hill-Bronx main) and St. Louis University are also excellent choices.</p>

10

<p>By looking at your other school I woulds say that you want a large student body. So i don't think that Tufts is that much of a match. I would agree with NYU and Boston University, University of Pittsburgh
Did you consider some of the UC schools like Davis or San Diego?</p>

11

<p>BU, and NYU definately look like good matches for you
also some of the schools in new york, maybe a hamilton or a syracuse?</p>

12

<p>I can't apply to nyu or bc because I didn't take subject tests and I don't plan to with one month to go. Would love to go to nyu though.</p>

13

<p>Holy Cross and Brandeis.</p>
