<p>do you want a specific location? </p>

<p>i see you are in nc… may i ask why duke and wakeforest isn’t on your list? (not sure about FA from wake, but duke will cover you, 100% full-ride). both fit your criteria. also, i suggest UVa, UMich, and UPenn.</p>

<p>johns hopkins - may be a reach though.</p>

<p>Went to a summer program at Wake Forest, I really didn’t like the campus. I’ll have to think some more about Duke for several reasons.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Definitely a big reach. Thanks for all of the suggestions guys. Talking to the people on the UChicago forum, not sure whether I’m falling in love with the school or the people on the forum. lol</p>

<p>Cornell, Duke, Emory, Vanderbilt, Wake Forest</p>

<p>These schools might be worth the extra cost over UNC Chapel Hill, which would have in-state tuition.</p>
