<p>What schools should I be considering? The farthest west I’m allowed to go is Chicago. The farthest south is N.C. and the farthest north is M.A. I have no idea what I want to do, but I really like politics, international relations, and history.</p>

<p>do you care about size of school? location urban vs suburban vs rural? sports? greek life? etc etc</p>

<p><a href=“Political Studies – Social Science”>www.politicalstudies.org/pdf/psr/hix.pdf</a></p>

<p>U Chicago
NYU
Wake Forest
Vanderbilt
George Washington University
Boston College
Georgetown</p>

<p>Don’t exactly know what your looking for, so I just named some colleges that I think you have a decent chance of being accepted at, that have decent political science programs.</p>

<p>Huskem- I prefer suburban and urban schools. I’m pretty much apathetic about greek life. </p>

<p>Thanks for your input thus far.</p>

<p>How is this list:
The College of New Jersey
UMich
UVA
Northwestern (my brother goes here)
Georgetown
Johns Hopkins
Duke
Tufts
NYU</p>

<p>Also look at William & Mary and Davidson. Greek sytem is not as prominent as UVa and Duke or Michigan</p>

<p>Definitely look at JHU, Gtown, and Tufts. Tops!</p>
