My college list? PLEASE Help!!

<p>I’m not sure what to think of my college list…</p>

<p>GPA: 3.8 W (School doesn’t rank or have UW)
SAT: 2110
ACT: Taking this December
Intended Major: Unsure, maybe Economics
EC: Moderate EC, officer positions, basketball coaching, hospital veterinary shadow/volunteer, 1 regional award in knowledge, and clubs such as NHS</p>

<p>Course Rigor: Started taking rigorous course load starting Junior year…</p>

<p>Senior Schedule:
AP Calculus BC
AP Human Geography
English 12 Honors
AP Comparative Government
AP Biology
Human Anatomy</p>

<p>College list (in-state for Virginia, low income so I’m not sure if applying to OOS is right):
George Mason University
Virginia Commonwealth University
Virginia Tech
Northeastern University
American University</p>

<p>You’re a senior?</p>

<p>It’s a good list, a very good list, but you can probably aim higher, using these as a starting point. Since you’re low income, look for private schools that will meet full need with no loans. Probably not Ivies, unless you’re a URM, but you never know.</p>

<p>Use the College Search function on the site. Don’t be too picky about things like size and see what comes up, you might be surprised. If you’re a senior, you’ve got to worry about the Jan 1 deadline coming up for a lot of these schools, so get working. If you spot something interesting, come back and let us know, I’m sure someone will tell you if you’re headed in the right direction.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
