<p>anyone out there?</p>

<p>...................its hard getting answers that don't involve ivy leagues</p>

<p>i don't really know that much about the schools that you are interested in but if you want to go to a better school, you might want to look at william and mary. They always need people for track and cross country.</p>

<p>thanks, but Im not interested in playing sports in college. ANyone else?</p>

<p>Actually, your post is refreshing BECAUSE it's not about the Ivy Leagues.
I'd say you are a sure-fire bet for everywhere, because I know people with much lower stats from my school who got into those colleges. Don't worry about Bentley. And don't go to UMASS. I would be very surprised if you got turned down from anywhere (except Northeastern is more competitive).
If finances are not a problem, why not have a reach, or at least try for a school that is more competitive?</p>

<p>Thanks man!</p>

<p>anyone else have any ideas?</p>

<p>please? anyone?</p>

<p>Sorry, I don't have a lot of first-hand knowledge about the colleges you mentioned, but I do know that American U has a good language program... that's all I know, sorry!</p>

<p>By the way, THANK YOU for not showing (near)perfect SAT scores, perfect GPAs, rank 1/a gazillion, and then asking for chances at every single Ivy out there. I live in MD, so I haven't even heard of some schools you're listing.</p>

<p>one more thing, it's very easy getting answers if you inquire about Ivies and display awesome SAT scores, you get sarcasm, rudeness, and generally, you're called a showoff, an egomaniacal freak, etc. mainly because most people who ask for Ivy chances have done it like, 20 times already.</p>

<p>stain99:
why shouldnt he go to amherst?</p>

<p>can someone pleasse help me with identifying safes matches and reaches?</p>

<p>pleasse help me</p>

<p>UMASS aka Zoo Mass is awful. I've heard nothing but bad things about the Amherst campus. Besides, he has the grades and extracurriculars for better schools.</p>

<p>Safety: Bryant, Quinni, UVM, Umass
Match: Bentley, Northeastern (maybe a ittle bit of a reach), American U</p>

<p>What about Babson-it is a great school for business and they accept half the people who apply.</p>

<p>anyone else got some input?</p>

<p>..................................................</p>

<p>Indiana (bloomington) has a good business school, which I think you should be able to get into, but I don't if your interested in going that far. Also maybe Babson College, I don't know much about their admissions, however it is a business oriented college similar to bentley.</p>

<p>more please</p>
