What schools should I apply to based on my stats? (Target Schools, Please!)

Hello!

I'm class of 2025 and female living in MI. I prefer the Midwest but am open to maybe the East of the US. I'm looking to major in psychology and prefer an accelerated program of some kind. (I'll ignore some details just to keep my privacy if that is okay)

My stats:

GPA: unweighted maybe a 3.5, weighted 3.7

SAT: 1490, shooting for a 1500 one last time

Extracurriculars

- assistant teaching for three years at an organization teaching my native language

- before that, assistant teaching for two years at a religious teaching organization

- I was a volunteer coach for a MP team (1 year)

- I do classical singing (10+ years) and classical dance (10+, performed at a very prestigious event)

- I've been running passively for a year, training for a half-marathon and have done 2 5ks

- newly vice president and in charge of social media for a club at school, but not in much other clubs

- play an instrument and used it as accompaniment at minor concerts (2 years)

Accomplishments:

- Seal of Biliteracy

- CPR Certfied

- "Leading by Example" award (dance)

- PVSA twice (101 hours-Gold and 143 hours- Bronze)

I think that's mostly it, thank you so much!

Hey @sunnysunflowers!

I'm in a similar situation to you right now. I think you should further explore your preferences in colleges--even within the Midwest, there's a lot of colleges you could attend. Do you prefer large universities or smaller colleges? Urban or rural? Liberal arts or not? Research opportunities? Credit transferability? Tuition costs?

A really solid resource to help you with this is Ivy, College Vine's newly implemented AI. You can ask it to suggest you target colleges and list your preferences. It will guide you through making a list and ask you for preferences to tailor it to you. Just remember sometimes it doesn't always have the most up-to-date info on colleges, so for things like tuition costs, meets-needs, and available majors I suggest you visit the college's own website.

I hope this helps, good luck in your search! :)
