PLEASE Help Me Figure Out Some Target Schools

<p>No problem. As Midwest Mom mentioned, you have great credentials. I think you have a very good chance of getting into NYU, GWU, and Rochester. I probably should have listed them as “Low Target / High Safety”.</p>

<p>Could anyone offer opinions on swapping out Rochester for Brandeis? I’ve been looking at them, and they seem very similar - research universities with the feel of an LAC. This is exactly what I want, but I don’t know if one is better than the other?</p>

<p>I’ve also known top candidates who got really generous merit aid at Rochester. One chose Duke this past year and now their parents are having “buyer’s remorse” because the tuition and other fees are coming due.</p>
