[quote=Anonymous]Dear DCUM College Admissions Fantasy League participants, please help us by suggesting school for us to consider/visit this coming year.  Many of you have now visited many places and know more than we do. Maybe you have a similar kid or know of similar kids and where they are happy. We are looking for a nice balance of reach, target, and safety schools. Also wondering how many schools people typically apply to these days. Back in my day I applied to 4.

DD is:
-Broadly interested in science, cs, and math and will likely major in one of these
-Will likely want to go to grad school to become a researcher, so would like research opportunities in labs as an undergrad
-Makes friends easily with other nerds, but is not very into the party scene. Not an outspoken leader type, but not shy either
-Has not taken the SAT or PSAT yet, but generally tests well (had all 9's on ISEE entering upper school, for those of you familiar with private school tests)
-Extracurriculars, besides some STEM clubs, are mostly music related and would like to continue with music in college, but not as a major course of study
-not an athlete, not URM
-Interested in local schools such as UMD but open to going far if the fit is right
