Hi all, thanks for your responses. Some interesting suggestions of schools I will definitely look into.
Just to clarify based on the questions.
SAT just came back at 1450 (hooray!)
Location: entire east coast is fine (prefer driving than having to fly…)
Thinking mid-> larger schools for diversity and choices of majors/classes
GPA on 4 point scale will be 3.6
Portfolio - yes, a relative smaller one of about 6-8 pieces so far. We plan to submit as supplemental even if not required.
I guess I will cough up $ if for super competitive schools such as CMU. Otherwise $50-60K seems reasonable for a good education.
What do you think about University of Maryland, Lehigh, Babson (business, yes), University of FL, Cooper Union or Benard? Are any of these reachable for us?
Thank you so much!!
