<p>If your parents can cover the EFC, have a look at some of the less-selective full-need schools as potential “reach” colleges. Possibilities: Bryn Mawr, Connecticut College, F&M, Occidental, Trinity, Richmond. These are all small LACs. Check out USC if you want a much larger school. The University of Miami is less selective but also covers a lower percentage of demonstrated need (~80% on average.)</p>
<p>It’s hard to recommend match and safety possibilities without knowing more about your family’s ability/willingness to pay. For starters, run the Net Price Calculators for Penn State and Pitt.</p>
