College Search & Selection

<p>Hey everyone</p>

<p>Ill be a senior next year, and I need some more schools</p>

<p>Right now I have</p>

<p>USC
Boston College
Wake Forest
Washington</p>

<p>And I want to explore some more options</p>

<p>Im a pretty good student, but standardized tests are not my forte</p>

<p>Well here is what is important to me, and hopefully you can give me some suggestions .. :)</p>

<ul>
<li>solid academics... not Ivy level but better than ASU</li>
<li>I want the school to be prestigious though</li>
<li>weather and location arnt a factor, except I really want to escape the heat of Arizona</li>
<li>I desperately need a big sports scene. I want kids that love to wear their school colors around and are tailgating before the football games and such</li>
<li>I also like that a high majority of students live on campus, and if it is an urban setting I wish that the campus is really self contained. Meaning that the campus is centered, and not sprawling across the downtown of a city</li>
</ul>

<p>Here are some of my academic stuff</p>

<p>3.81 unweighted gpa
3.989 Weighted gpa
28 ACT</p>

<p>Thanks everyone :) :) :) :)</p>

<p>Big sports scene would be Big 10, Big 12. Many good schools in there that are cooler weather.</p>

<p>Urban, big sports, cooler...</p>

<p>Pittsburgh, Northwestern, Villanova(good bball, good D1-AA fball), UWashington</p>

<p>In college towns that will offer all you need...
