<p>Very good scores (BTW for FL the 220 PSAT should be good for National Merit - you should check on it since I thought the notification date was the 13th this month). You seem to have similar school desires as my D (different major). SHe is looking at LACs in the midwest (Macalester, Oberlin). Nice suburban environment. No merit aid though. For that you may have to look at next tier schools (Earlham in Indiana is on her list). Not sure about the IR programs at any of those. UWSt Louis may be a good fit (I think they have a very international student body).</p>
