Hi everyone, hope you’re all having a good day. As we all know, it’s time to apply to college, but I am having trouble finding colleges that I REALLY want to apply to. I have a list of some schools I think are cool, or have visited, but I am not overly in love with any of them. Could you help me find some colleges to check out, and possibly add to my list?
On my list is currently:
- American University
- DePaul University
- Emory University
- Loyola Marymount University
- Miami University
- New York University
- Santa Clara University
- Seattle University
- University of Portland
- University of San Diego
- University of San Francisco
I know this seems like a lot of schools, but like I said, I am willing to knock some off and replace them for others if I feel another school would be a better fit.
Some facts about me:
- I have a 3.9 weighted GPA, 3.7 unweighted. I am ranked 20 out of 102 in my class.
- My SAT superscore is an 1800, and my highest ACT is a 26 (I am retaking the ACT in October)
- I play varsity soccer and lacrosse, and plan on playing club in college.
- I am a dancer, photographer, and artist.
- I have taken 2 APs, passed both; I am taking 4 APs this year and hope to pass them as well.
- I have won a few art contests schoolwide.
- I have 200+ of community service.
- I want to major in either international relations or political science; and possibly minor in history or Spanish.
- I live in northern California, but am willing to go almost anywhere for school.
- I want a school with between 6,000-25,000 students, and in an urban area or college town. Bottom line, I’d like things around to do off campus.
- Cost is not an issue.
