What college should I go to??

College Search & Selection

<hr>

<p>Okay so I have probably visited over 20 colleges, however I'm not sure I found the "one" yet. So far I like Gettysburg College, Franklin & Marshall, Elon University, Lafayette College, and Washington College. </p>

<p>These are my stats: 2060 on SAT (1370), 760 SAT US History, 3.8 GPA and 5.125 weighted, 13% class rank (I attend a VERY smart high school), played basketball and outdoor track, in National Honor Society (Treasurer), Science National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta, Mock Trial, and other clubs, plus I volunteer alot for my church. I have taken 8 APs and have gotten two 4's and two 5's so far. I always take the hardest classes give to me. </p>

<p>So back to the point, I was wondering if there are any other schools that seem like a good fit or me. One condition is that they have to give good merit money because my dad has a high income, however I don't think we can pay 50k a year.
Any suggestions are welcome!!!</p>

<p>Take a look at Chapman University, because they have a great need blind merit-aid program.</p>

<p>What is your state of residence? Also, any ideas what you might be looking at for a major?</p>

<p>I have also visited Gettysburg, F&M, Lafayette and Elon. The LAC’s in Pennsylvania are going to push your budget. Elon is a little more reasonable in their tuition. I am not sure how much, if any, merit based aid you would get from any of them.</p>

<p>Check out Furman and College of Wooster. If you’re open to larger schools, Tulane and Miami (FL) could be worth a look.</p>
