My daughter is a rising junior, and we are just starting the college search. She will likely have a 3.0 to 3.3 avg when it comes time to apply with waterpolo as her main EC and good to very good SATs.

Can anyone suggest some private schools for her in CA? We live in Orange County, and she doesn’t want to be within an hour of home. She would prefer a school that is within 30 - 40 minutes of a major city. She is currently most interested in schools in the 2K - 15K undergrad range, and is not opposed to a Christian school. We are conservative, but I think she could hold her own in any environment. She does have ADHD, but will not likely need additional services (just hard work!)

Thank you for any ideas! Right now, we are just starting to look at University of San Franciso, Loyola Marymount (low reach) Pepperdine (reach) and Santa Clara University.

Ideas???
