If you’re open to historically women’s colleges you might look at Agnes Scott in Decatur in the Atlanta area. It’s a really diverse school. It does that weird thing that a lot of second tier, but well respected, private schools do where the sticker price is really high, but then they give everyone a scholarship to bring it down to a level comparable with a state school. With your excellent grades I’m sure it would be a safety for you and you might get a lot of money or even a full ride. When I say “second tier” it is an excellent school and scores really high on all the lists out there (USNews, Princeton Review, etc), it’s just not Harvard, etc. They offer a full ride scholarship that with your excellent grades you might very well be invited to apply for.
Agnes Scott is probably the most diverse school we toured. It is about 35% black, 13% Hispanic/Latina, 6% Asian and only 35% white. It’s a very vibrant community and while not a HBCU is a really great community for black women.
It is part of a consortium so you can take classes at Emory and other Atlanta area schools also.
The Agnes Scott Summit program is all about lifting students up. It is a gorgeous campus and close to lots of shops and restaurants in Decatur.
(As an aside I was looking for a link to the Princeton Review to post and found this great story on Slate of the 1966 quiz bowl match between Princeton and Agnes Scott that Agnes Scott won. )
My mom went to Agnes Scott many eons ago and it’s sort of the one that got away for my D22.
