pakjan6 - I suggest that you find the book Colleges That Change Lives by Loren Pope. There are some fabulous schools in there, and the book describes the atmosphere of each in a way that goes way beyond, and deeper than, the numbers game. Best of luck. Oh! and there is a CTCL website where you can find links to the schools, and college fairs where they will visit near you, etc. But get the book - it's small and has great in depth info.
