<p>Equivalent Reaches: Columbia, Chicago (both are actually harder to get into than Penn Arts & Sciences…)</p>
<p>Slightly less of a reach: Georgetown, Northwestern, Vanderbilt (Vanderbilt is, IMO, the closest to Penn in campus feel, since Nashville’s Midtown has developed around Vandy/Belmont students and you’re not far away from Downtown).</p>
<p>Matches: USC, Carnegie Mellon</p>
<p>Safeties: Pitt, Case Western</p>
<p>I’m assuming you’re a competitive Penn applicant, so this is without knowing your stats.</p>
