School List Suggestions
[edited]

College list
Answered

I'm a rising senior with a pretty good college list. But I don't want to miss out on any other schools. So maybe I could get some school suggestions? It took me a long time to make the list because of my info: 3.2 GPA, 850 SAT, good qualitative extracurriculars, and I have reccomendation letters in the works. I live in New Jersey(so anything in DC, MD, NY, etc) I have schools in these states on my list but I don't want to miss out on a school that actually fits me and I what want to do(entreprenurial/business). I'm a low-low income student as well. It's like because of my grades and everything it makes the schools a hard target.

Beyond the things do you have any qualities you are really look for like urban campus etc?

If you respond I have a fair few that I’ll think may be good fits.

Yes, like an urban campus, with activities/stores in walking distance. That would be great!!!!

So these are probably going to be reaches/safeties for you. I have a few safeties.

@DebaterMAX3 years ago

I mostly considered GPA as your SAT is fairly weak and test optional will be your friend.

Pitt Drexel Temple UConn UMBC Maryland WVU Buffalo George Mason UMass Lowell UMass Amherst RPI are all targets and reaches.

Look at University of Illinois!! They are a really good school for business. My sister just graduated from there and was in their business school. She got a job right after she graduated because they helped her get an internship. From personal experience Illinois does not sound like the best state, although Urbana-Champaign (where university is located) is a new modern city. Reminds me of a small version of Chicago. Not to mention their sports teams are good and fun to watch. If you want a more of a college experience I recommend applying.

OP said in North East and with a 3.2 GPA out of state it’s a tough reach.
