[quote=Anonymous]My son is a sophmore so we are still early in the search.   Right now when I ask him about what he wants in a college, his first response is that he wants to go somewhere "cold."    He is the kid you see standing at the bus stop in January wearing shorts and a t-shirt.   He runs very hot and would be miserable somewhere in the south.

We are "cafeteria Catholics" so while he wouldn't be opposed to a Catholic school, he isn't specifically seeking one.   Right now he is open to big school/small school, urban vs. "small college town" etc.
I was thinking of possibly doing a trip (at some point, who knows exactly when with Covid) to Minnessota to show him University of Minnessota Twin cities and University of St. Thomas.
Carleton and Macalester would likely be out of his league.
  
Since he's a sophmore, it's still early, but I'm estimating he will probably have around a 3.9 WEIGHTED GPA, an SAT somewhere in mid 1300s--with standard ECs (a sport, but not the "star" of the team.   An instrument, but not in the "honors" orchestra or first chair.   Eagle Scout, with many leadership positions in Boy Scouts.)[/quote]
