My dad wants me to apply to schools I really do not want to go to

<p>^ OP can try to find her “fit,” same as any kid. But that’s more than simple stats. I get that NYU, even with plenty of conservatives, is still in a highly liberal area. But characterizing a school based on the number of self id’d Christians (Vandy) or its location in Va (W&L) isn’t enough. Mudd may be generally liberal, eg, but southern CA is full of highly conservative religious folks. One needs (as someone suggested) to look at programs on campus, what they do, how many kids are actively involved, etc.</p>
