<p>If you’re looking for West Coast or PNW, I agree with the poster above who mentioned University of British Columbia. great school, great location, great outdoors.
I would also suggest Western Washington University, as well as Washington State University – both considerably less $$ for OOS than University of Washington. </p>
<p>Whitman, Colorado College, Middlebury, University of Vermont, Bowdoin, Bates, plus University of Oregon could all potentially be in your price range. </p>
<p>Be sure to run the Net Price Calculator for each school individually.</p>
