<p>Screen name: NCEph
Is your junior male or female: female
Home state: NC</p>
<p>Preferred geographic location for college: East, but maybe not</p>
<p>Any specific things looking for in a college (large, small, urban, etc.): probably a LAC, but maybe not. Minimal Greek presence preferred. She's concerned that some of the schools on her list may be too "pre-professional" in atmosphere.</p>
<p>Child's possible academic interests: math, philosophy, linguistics, psychology, music (probably as an EC: bassoon and voice)</p>
<p>Schools currently on child's list of possibilities: Williams, Swarthmore, UNC, Brown, MIT(?) (I'd like her to consider Carleton and Rice, too, but we're not sure what we think about the distance from home.) Although her stats put her in the top 25% for these schools, we realize admission to any of them is still a long shot, so we'll be working on some safeties to add to the list this summer.</p>
<p>Schools we've visited (whether or not child is still interested in going there): Princeton, Williams, Amherst, MIT, Harvard, Brown, Wesleyan, Yale, Columbia, Swarthmore, Duke, Davidson, UNC.</p>
