All my cousin’s friends in preppy Greenwich, CT want to go there.


Maybe in past decades, now UVA is seen as not PC enough, even for preppies.


Preppies are generally conservative.

You might look at Bates in Maine. Very preppy, hard to get but they have been test-optional forever.

What does preppy mean these days?

Also, I think OP has a shot at tge more selective LACs in ED. Especially those who fill most of tte class ED. Write some great essays, OP.

Isn't Skidmore more woke than preppy?
