<p>If you ask who wouldn’t want NYC, so you know: me. The city is great to spend there a couple of days but never to live there. The same expenses I pay there for everyday articles I can spend in another city for the greatest weekend activities that I could imagine. </p>
<p>Well, I am just interested in a high quality - not in the ivy league. So I am open minded to any suggestion. </p>
<p>McCubsFan, you are absolutely right. I would like to avert some useless application. So I won’t send anything to Harvard and so on. But what do you mean with near the top of the rankings? Somehow or other near the top 30? Well, I am not really informed about that colleges in Michigan, Minnesota or Texas. But I appreciate them to be worth a try.</p>
