<p>My friend is a junior and is trying to narrow down a list of schools to apply to, and I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions. They have around a 3.0 and is in the top 25% of the class. No SAT's yet, but probably will get right around 1300. Any idea for schools in PA, VA, MA, NC, or around this area? thanks for your help</p>

<p>forgot to add that they aren't sure of their major, but probably political sicence, int. relations, etc.</p>

<p>Dickinson, GW maybe, Elon (I visited it and it is a nice campus), I dont think if your friend has a 1300 they should even think about considering UNCA, I live in asheville (it is a great city, except there are A LOT of hippies) but with that SAT score UNCA would be aiming a little low.</p>
