<p>These are some of the schools that I am interested in. Could you please put them in order from most difficult to get into, to the easiest to get into. Okay, that wasn't very grammatically correct, but you get the gist of it. Thanks so much for any input.</p>

<p>Middlebury
Bowdoin
Brown
Ithaca
U of Rochester
Northwestern
Johns Hopkins
Tufts
Beloit
Vassar
Colgate
Colby
Kenyon</p>

<p>Have you ever seen a high school's "results" list such as
<a href="http://apps.amityregion5.org/colleges/CollegeApp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://apps.amityregion5.org/colleges/CollegeApp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>It has most of the schools you are looking for, and would give you a good idea of the acceptance cutoffs for the private schools. State schools will vary depending on who is in-state and who isn't.</p>

<p>Beloit is a good school with a high acceptance rate; it's student body is self-selecting, liberal and quirky. Location isn't great, although nearby Rockford, Illinois is a booming town, and Chicago and Madison are both within 90 minute drives.</p>

4

<p>all seem difficult w/ ithica being one of the less difficult ones</p>

5

<p>All of the following in my opinion are about the same selectivity group with a few exceptions, but best guesses...</p>

<p>brown
northwestern
JHU</p>

<p>tufts
middlebury
bowdoin</p>

<p>colgate
vassar
colby
rochester
kenyon</p>

<p>ithaca</p>

This is the first time I've seen such table and you can cross reference to see where a particular student gets rejected and accepted.</p>
