<p>I'm going to visit loyola college in maryland in a couple weeks and was wondering if there are any other colleges nearby that I should visit. I'm only going to be there for 3 days so I can't visit much. I was thinking of checking out American since Baltimore is somewhat close to Wash. DC. I'm only really looking to vist match/safeties for now</p>

<p>GPA:94/100
ACT:30
SAT:1840
SAT II: 700 Bio E 770 US History
ECs: Nothing really of note here, my ECs are pretty poor. I volunteer as a camp counselor over the summer. I am a peer leader to incoming ninth graders(basically guide and help them) , nhs, model congress, a few other negligible things.
Rank ~19/300</p>

<p>I really appreciate any suggestions, and if you suggest something I can visit later on in the midwest and california that would be great as well.</p>

<p>UMaryland - College Park or UMaryland - Baltimore County?</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins is in Baltimore but I doubt you'd have much chance there. Is Bryn Mawr in Maryland or PA? I think there is a girl's school in Baltimore somewhere.</p>

<p>Also you might look at Holy Cross or GW.</p>

<p>It would help to know what's attracting you to Loyola, so we can consider what you might be looking for.</p>

<p>You might also check out Goucher College and Towson State University, both very close to Loyola. Baltimore seems like it would be a great place to go to college since there are so many colleges in and around the city. There is even a free bus which shuttles students between the various campuses and it is possible to take classes at other schools too.</p>

<p>Might be hard to look at Holy Cross while visiting Loyola. Loyola is in Baltimore - Holy Cross is a good six hours or more away near Boston. :)</p>

<p>Goucher and Towson are right by Loyola of Maryland so you may want to check them out. On the Goucher website is a link to a publication that gives info on all the Baltimore area schools. (I forgot the website name). But there must be a dozen schools in the Baltimore area. We checked out Towson for my d, she was pretty interested in it, so it may be a school that she will apply to. Good luck.</p>
