<p>One school I haven’t seen mentioned is Rensselaer. Rank #41, admissions rate is 44% (41% male, 49% female), SAT CR: 610-700, Math 660-760, W 590-690, ACT 26-31. I also think Purdue and Case should be on your list. Michigan and Penn State are also good choices. These schools are still selective, particularly for an international student, but they are less selective than the tippy top schools, which seems to be what you are asking. Please look at costs with all of these schools; they are all rather expensive (not just the privates; these publics are particularly expensive for out-of-state students). And please don’t forget to include safeties.</p>
