<p>I got rejected from Pomona ED1 and my appeal got denied, so I want to find schools that are similar. Ideally, under 5000 students and with good weather.</p>
<p>These are the things I liked about Pomona:</p>
<p>+100% need met aid with no loans(preferably), and need blind. I’m low income.
+Great academics in just about any discipline, particularly science
+Well-rounded and diverse student body
+A social scene that doesn’t center on drinking
+Proximity to an urban location
+A wonderful consortium if within a liberal arts college</p>
<p>I have safeties (National Merit Semifinalist Full Rides) and have applied to University of Chicago, Rice, Stanford, and Swarthmore so far.</p>
