Private schools near the beach/mountains?

<p>

</p>

<p>Rule out St. Mary’s of Maryland. There is no surfing there. It’s all SAIL SAIL SAIL. </p>

<p>And, as for beach, yes, they have one because there’s a place where land meets water. But that’s it. Hardly a beachy/resorty/sandy flip flop culture.</p>

<p>How about Monmouth University in New Jersey</p>

<p>[Monmouth</a> University: A Great Location](<a href=“http://www.monmouth.edu/about_monmouth/abo_glance_great.asp]Monmouth”>http://www.monmouth.edu/about_monmouth/abo_glance_great.asp)</p>

<p>So i feel like most of the preppy/ jocky kids and girls with Range Rovers go to UCSB</p>

<p>and the one’s who like to wear glasses and vans, smoke pot and watch movies go to UCSC.</p>

<p>I’m sort of right down the middle in my personality, so it would be a tough divide for me to make! hahah</p>

<p>I was about to say Pepperdine when I opened this thead, but I see it’s been mentioned enough times haha. But still, if you want surf and mountains, Pepperdine is hard to beat.</p>

<p>BobbyCT, one person from my HS I believe is going to Furman, 2 of my next door neighbors are going to Furman (one on the basketball team) and 3 people I know elsewhere are going there for a total of 6 people…coming from the Boston area</p>

<p>I second Pomona, it fits the bill perfectly. Just need to get that ACT up unless you’re being recruited for Lacrosse.</p>

<p>Claremont colleges.</p>

<p>pomona has a ski-beach day in febuary</p>

<p>would i even have a shot at any of the Claremont colleges?</p>

<p>You have a shot at Pitzer College but the other Claremont Colleges would be high reaches</p>

<p>Pomona if you can get your ACT up. You shouldn’t have too much trouble with Pitzer based on your stats (Scripps as well for females in this position).</p>
