Match suggestions please

College Search & Selection

<p>I really need some help. I feel like I am going in circles trying to pin down my list with time running out. I need a few more matches/safeties to put down.
Criteria:
Good aid - Yes I will qualify
Strong sciences and not in California
Not rural, but small (2000-7000ish) and most people live on the campus</p>

<p>Schools I am maybe applying to:
Bard College (match? reach? not sure.)
Boston University (probably not applying because of the reach/bad aid situation but I like the feel)
Duke University (reach)
George Washington University (match?)
Haverford College (not sure if I am applying)
Rice University (first choice/reach)
Vassar College (reach?)
Goucher (pretty sure this is a match but the gender ratio is so off it's off-putting)</p>

<p>Stats:
ACT: 32
SATII: Lit 730 BioM 670 (retaking in December)
GPA: 3.7 unweighted (a lot higher without freshman year if that helps)
Other extracurriculars and such</p>

<p>Thank you for any help! and if you have any personal experience with a school that is most welcome.</p>

<p>U. Richmond. They meet need, and also offer merit aid. In a city, with a beautiful, residential campus. About 3000 students. Less selective than most of the other schools on your list.</p>

<p>Add another vote for Lehigh or have you thought of Pitt?</p>
