[quote=Anonymous]This all depends on what top private and what you mean by middle of the road.  I see above that people are talking about Middlebury, Bates, Colby and that might be possible if you're middle of the road at Sidwell but wouldn't be possible if you're middle of the road at St. Andrews, for example.

Being male and looking at art/writing programs is going to be a big boost for your son anyways because many of the schools that excel in these areas have a much larger female applicant pool.  What kind of SAT/ACT scores are we talking about?  Some schools are SAT optional (Bates for ex) but others like Middlebury have very high SAT averages.

Lots of options at many levels though.  My DD goes to a school with a top creative writing program so I did a lot of research in this area when she was looking last year.  One school that she loved that was Knox College - they are a College That Changes Lives school and have a well known creative writing program.  She got in with a lot of merit money, which was nice, but ended up choosing another school.  If you're looking for merit money and a strong writing program I would look at them.[/quote]
