My Chances at Bucknell ED, LeHigh, Colgate?

<p>heh what did you like about bucknell?</p>

<p>If you can use your sport {soccer} and try to get some assistance from the soccer coach. D had similar stats to yours and got in to Colgate, Class of 2008 RD. Last year younger D with same stats was waitlisted and it was not her top choice anyway but Colgate had a 20% increase in applications. Would suggest ED for your first choice and write a solid essay. Good luck and keep us posted.</p>

<p>What do I like about Bucknell? It's a solid academic school with a good reputation and a nice size (3,500). There's barely any undergrads, the facilities are nice, and the campus grounds are very nice. From what I hear, although isolated, Lewisburg is also a nice college town. They play D-1 in the Patriot League, have a strong networking alumni, and it has programs I'm interested in. Plus, being from NJ, it's not too far from home.</p>
