The University of Chicago is noticeably absent…and Rutgers has shown up on lists for philosophy and religion for years and years. If money is essential, it might be good to use that as the criteria and do that research over the next 6 months for culling that list to a manageable number. If he breaks a 30 on the ACT he could use that for Michigan, otherwise check the SAT for concordance. If he doesn’t reach into the 30s, that school will be an uber-reach financially if you are out of state for Michigan. He’ll need those scores, anyway, to keep the Yales, MITs etc. on the list but you should know this criteria after this spring’s testing. Good luck, I think you’ve got plenty of schools on your list to research and pretty defined criteria to put a manageable list together.
