What other colleges should I consider

College Search & Lists
1

<p>Right now my choices are McGill, University of Vermont, Boston University, College of the Atlantic, Smith College, Macalester College, University of Michigan, Connecticut College, and Wesleyan.</p>

<p>My choices are sort of all over the places, but I’m interested in green schools that have good academics and have pretty buildings and nice people. A city nearby would be preferred. I know it sounds silly, but if there was a school like that it would be perfect. </p>

<p>My scores:</p>

<p>GPA 3.5
ACT 30
SAT 1950
7 AP classes</p>

<p>How much can your parents afford? If you don’t know, ask them. Don’t just settle for a vague answer, find out the exact dollar amount.</p>

<p>Here are some possibilities, but some may be unaffordable if your parents can’t afford to pay up to $60k a year
If you’re willing to go anywhere in the country, you might consider
-University of Puget Sound
-Lewis & Clark College
-Colorado College (reach)
-University of Denver
-CU Boulder
-Appalachian State
-Western Washington University
-University of Washington
-University of Victoria (Canada)

-U Minnesota - Twin Cities</p>

<p>Thanks so much! Right now I’m still in the information collecting phase so any college suggestions are great. That being said, I’d like to go to a school that wouldn’t put me in crippling debt.</p>

<p>^ Than ask your parents the question of how much they can afford.</p>

5

<p>They’ll be paying up to $20,000. The rest I have to contribute with scholarships, loans, etc.</p>

6

<p>What’s your home state? You can only borrow around $5,500-$7,000 a year unless your parents are willing to cosign loans.</p>

<p>If you have a good Instate (tuition) school I suggest doing that, and build your profile up as you go through college.</p>
