<p>Wow guys thanks for your feedback! 
</p>
<p>I will definitely look into the schools you mentioned. Let me just elaborate a little:</p>
<p>We have a VERY high EFC of about $40k. So we aren’t expecting much (if any) need-based aid. My parents are going to pay $15-20k a year, and I will have to get the rest in scholarships and loans. </p>
<p>I would prefer a school with a lot of attendance to football games (I’ve been to a couple fb games at Notre Dame and I love that sort of feeling). Basketball isn’t as big of a deal for me. </p>
<p>I know my stats aren’t good enough for a lot of the more competitive privates, and to be honest I have little interest in going to an extremely competitive college. I like a challenge, but I don’t think my level of motivation is up there with those kids. :)</p>
