Low GPA w/ High Scores Looking to ED Bates [NV resident, 3.48 GPA, 35 ACT]

There’s lot of matches for you.

I don’t see you listing budget anywhere. Bates will be - for you - $400K.

Do you have that to spend on a school?

If not, what can you afford?

What do you want in a school? What appealed about Bates - you said the culture - but are you open to any part of the country or immune to any part? Does only an LAC work?

Do you want to be urban - or in the middle of nowhere is ok? Is a smaller school but not an LAC ok?

In your fields of interest, I think the name matters far less than you’ll realize…..many a school will be great for you but tell me more so I don’t flip 100 names.

Budget being the biggest factor….

Thanks
