Brown vs Vanderbilt (ED)

CC has a slight obsession with Brown and Stanford and widespread ignorance of southern colleges, particularly the lesser-known ones – something to keep in mind. You’re the best person to judge the best fit for you.

This article from Vandy’s student newspaper last year discusses Jewish life on campus and the tremendous strides the university has taken in the last 10 years.

I agree that RD may be the way to go. Glancing over your stats, you’re a competitive applicant for the RD round, though it’s admittedly usually more competitive.

More suggestions are likely the last thing you need, but I’m surprised Wash U, Rice, and Duke haven’t made your list of colleges to consider (in more or less that order).
