<p>You should definitely be able to get into Holy Cross. Very small at 2800 and highly regarded academically. Highest rated for academics Catholic college in the US per 2009 Princeton Review. Top ranked Catholic liberal arts college in the US per US News. Great student support for their football and basketball teams. NCAA Division 1 sports. Oldest Catholic college in New England and one of the oldest in the country. On top ten list of most beautiful campuses in US per Princeton Review 2009.</p>

<p>If you want division 1 sports, I would also look at Colgate and Bucknell and Lafayette.</p>

<p>If you do not care about sports, then great division 3 schools include Middlebury, Bowdoin, Bates, Colby, Tufts. </p>

<p>These are all outstanding schools and I think you stand a great shot at all. Only downside is that except for Tufts and Holy Cross, they are all in fairly remote locations.</p>

<p>I dont think i could get into any of those schools</p>

<p>Look at CollegeData:</a> College Search, Financial Aid, College Application, College Scholarship, Student Loan, FAFSA Info, Common Application and ::</a> College Planning Made Easy | Inside Source for College Admissions Requirements. You will find that the incoming stats for these schools are all very similar and you fit the profile. Top 5% is very good.</p>

<p>you could probably get into Stonehill</p>

<p>Holy Cross is definitely a good school. In the interest of honesty, however, it has very poor support for its athletic teams from its students. With the exception of the Bucknell game, only a handful of students come out for games. And there are few students in sight at any football game. Their over-40 alums do support the team however.</p>
