Help with Finding Out/In-State Schools (Early Action) [MD resident, 3.87 UW, 1400 SAT, English Writing + Poli Sci]

Thanks for your reply!

I took a look at Loyola, and I do quite like the look of the school and its programs. I mean, it’s now very high-ranked nationally, and the campus/location is pretty good for me.

My two biggest qualms with it would be the fact that it’s Catholic/Jesuit, and that they don’t have fencing. The former isn’t really a deal-breaker—I’m Jewish, but only agnostic, and I literally do live in a majority Catholic area. Plus, as far as I understand, the school is more about the “Jesuit values” rather than pushing the Catholic religion hard. But it looks like the school doesn’t have club fencing or anything, and that is probably a hard no for me. Either way, I’ll think about it; thank you for the suggestion!
