<p>im a 17 year old from wildwood new jersey. i went to a private catholic high school with 35 kids in my class. i was easily in the top third of my class. im going to be a senior in high school next year, and i have absolutely no idea where i want to go. i take all honors classes and get A's and B's. i will be taking an AP course next year. ive been on student council every year throughout high school and im on the national honors society. i play golf too. Being from New Jersey, there isnt a lot of choices for college around. I was just wondering what colleges i should consider. Im going to apply to Rutgers main campus and maybe Penn State, but i dont know what other schools to look at, or my chances at getting into these schools. Oh, and by the way, i want to go to a pretty big college where theres a good social life.</p>
<p>What are your scores? What can your family afford for college each year?</p>
<p>What Erin’s Dad stated and also what do you want to do in life or in other words what occupation you would like to do?</p>
<p>I have a 3.6 GPA out of 4.5 since its honors. i only got a 1590 on SATs. 520 on writing, 530 on critical reading, and 540 on math. average student. i know. also my parents wanna look at cheap as possible colleges since im from a middle class family.</p>
<p>Penn State will cost you $50K/year. Ask your GC what in-state colleges past grads have attended.</p>
<p>Rutgers is probably a very good choice for you in terms of providing a large college experience at a reasonable price. Other ideas are: Pitt, Syracuse, UVT, UMass-Amherst.</p>
<p>Also make sure to check out the SUNYs, especially Stony Brook for sciency subjects.</p>
