Wants to Apply to Somewhere Competitive...

There are some good recommendations here. I’d second (or third) Richmond. Beautiful campus; fun, on-the-upswing city (google “The Fan,” the nightlife district); great weather; terrific business school. I’d sort of ballpark it at a high match for you. You might be able to get some decent aid as well. You can run the NPC.

For merit aid, check out Miami of Ohio (note deadline to be considered for merit aid is Dec. 1, so very soon). Note it super-scores for admission AND merit aid.

I’d also agree with Bucknell and Wake, though Wake does place a lot of weight on student “interest,” especially visiting. So it would be a reach if you did not visit.

Villanova’s business school has a great reputation as well. I don’t know if aid would be likely there. Good luck!
