One word of caution about Lehigh - if they view you as treating them as a safety, they will not accept you. Two of my son’s classmates applied there and were waitlisted. These were kids who got accepted and with mega scholarships (full ride, paid summer in Europe, etc.) from more prestigious schools. The likely problem with Lehigh was that they never bothered to visit, hence were treating Lehigh as a safety and they were treated accordingly.
