<p>What can your family afford for school?</p>

<p>If you like Middlebury, and you can afford it, look at Bowdoin (a reach), Bates and Colby (matches) in Maine. Check out Vassar in NY (a reach). Bryn Mawr and Smith are possibilities if you are okay with all women (match). St. Mary’s in Maryland would be a good match/safety.</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your suggestions! I was actually looking into Bowdoin and Bates. And my family is lucky enough to be able to pay any amount for college due to money my grandfather left to us.</p>
