Reaches, Matches, Safeties! Help!

<p>Another good general LAC with a strong program in English and Creative Writing is Carleton, in Minnesota. It's a little isolated, but a great school, and easier to get in to than Williams or Amherst.</p>

<p>Cool..I'll look into it.</p>

<p>Oberlin is one of the strongest LACs in the country for English and Creative Writing. And has a world-class conservatory of music. And an excellent record for law school placement. Sounds like an excellent fit for you.</p>

<p>Thanks, any more suggestions?</p>

<p>for safeties, look at Bennington, Bard, and Sarah Lawrence.</p>

<p>Chicago has a great English program and will place you very well if you're looking toward law school. You'll also have access to the Chicago economics department, which has had a large influence over the practice of law over the law half century (e.g., the law and economics movement).</p>

<p>Definetely look at all the top English programs around...Yale, Brown, Duke, Dartmouth, Columbia Williams Amherst...all could be good places but are reaches</p>

<p>Yeah, I'm definitely going to apply to those schools as "reaches"...any matches? I think I have some pretty good safeties...</p>
