<p>Recommendations;</p>
<p>Can get three excellent recommendations (not a problem). </p>
<p>Where am I looking?</p>
<p>Well, I am looking at Liberal Arts Colleges in the USA. The East Coast is preferred but others are also fine. NOTE: I am not applying for AID!</p>
<p>What type of colleges should I look at? Bring on the suggestions...</p>
<p>Thanks

<p>look at Vassar. If you apply ED, you might get in!</p>
<p>I don’t think I want to apply anywhere ED. Haven’t made up my mind. Any other suggestions guys?</p>
<p>EDIT: Forgot to add that I interned at Mint (a leading business paper) here in New Delhi for some time in the summer of 2009.</p>
<p>Look at the University of Rochester.</p>
<p>Anymore suggestions guys?</p>
<p>I don’t really like Vassar. University of Rochester was already on my list. How hard is it to get in there?</p>
<p>Come on people? I need to decide soon?</p>
<p>I suggest that you do some research on your own, see which colleges are likely to accept you based on your SAT scores (collegeboard website should help with that). Also look at the big state schools- Penn State, University of Maryland, UT-Austin, etc. They need the money.</p>
<p>How is this list? Can you tell me which ones I am likely to get into?</p>
<p>Duke
Sarah-Lawrence
Penn State
Franklin & Marshall
Skidmore College
Colgate University
University of Maryland
University of Virgina
University of Rochester
University of Wisconsin–Madison
University of Washington
George Washington University
Syracuse University
Connecticut College</p>
<p>My views may sound brutal. If you think I am wrong and you have a shot, dont give a **** about my views and apply away. Best of Luck !! </p>
<p>Duke----No Chance
Sarah-Lawrence----Very Low Chance
Penn State-----You Have a shot
Franklin & Marshall--------No Chance
Skidmore College-----You have a shot
Colgate University-----No Chance
University of Maryland-----You Have a Shot
University of Virgina-----Very Low Chance
University of Rochester-------I dont know
University of Wisconsin–Madison-------I dont Know
University of Washington--------You Have a shot
George Washington University---------You have a shot
Syracuse University------Good Chance
Connecticut College------No Chance</p>
<p>Looking at my marks then maybe less chance but looking at my EC’s and all then maybe more of a chance. Plus, I am not applying for aid.</p>
<p>^^I’ve factored all that into my reply.</p>
<p>He’ll have a shot at Wisconsin.</p>
<p>Any suggestions for colleges I should apply to? Ones that I will have a good chance at getting in?</p>
