<p>I know these types of threads are extremely common, but I made one similar to it about a month ago and only got a few replys. </p>
<p>I really want help deciding what college is right for me. I'm clueless as to what college would fit me and I feel like many of the threads I make on here get overlooked, tons of views and a couple replies. </p>
<p>Anyway:
I have ~3.8 UW and ~4.3 W
4 APs and tons of honors classes
8 extracuriculars with leadership positions in a few
Go to a highly ranked private, catholic high school in New Jersey
2010 on the SAT (only taken it once, will improve)</p>
<p>Things i'm looking for:
Strong English program
Undergrad class size of no more than 10,000 students
One of the top 50 or so schools in the nation
Preferably no religious affiliation
In the Northeast (as far south as Virginia is fine though)
Strong but not overwhelming Greek life
Liberal or unbiased politically, not conservative
A decent amount of cultural diversity
A fairly prevalent party scene
Good/prestigious but not overly taxing academics
A laid back, friendly atmosphere
A nice campus
On campus housing for all four years
A hospitable environment for an aspiring author
Financial aid
Attractive down to Earth girls (lol)</p>
<p>Please, take the time to help me out and suggest colleges that meet as many of the aforementioned characteristics as possible.</p>
<p>thank you</p>
