Not to hijack the thread, but @merc81 do you (or anyone else) have a good source for “Best Colleges For _______” that doesn’t include (isn’t dominated) by T30 or T40 schools? It just seems that the vast majority of students will not attend a T30 school and many of these lists list only T30 and highly-selective LACs. At least the lists that I usually come across.
I think your links are great, but I’d like to see broader considerations.
