My comment unfortunately stands; I presumed it was not inclusive of writing. Your SAT is probably too low for any need-blind school of which I am aware (the comment about botton third applied to Wheaton.) You might get merit aid at some mid to low tier private school, or you might try for a public college where you would have to pay full rate but it would be less than a private school. For the smaller campuses, perhaps you could play tennis, but most tend to be quite large. Here is a list of possible such schools in or near urban areas where your SAT would put you in the middle or better of entering class, although not necessarily of those admitted, which tends to be higher as many better students are admitted than actually choose to attend:


University of Maryland
U of California–San Diego
U of Pittsburgh
Rutgers
U of California–Irvine
SUNY at Stony Brook
University of Washington
SUNY at Buffalo
New Jersey Inst. of Technology
Arizona State University
