[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's my personal and very rough comparison of LACs to university admissions.

WASP: Ivy-level qualifications (top stats, great ECs, and luck), but not necessarily HYPSM level qualifications. Character traits can be very important. Bowdoin is at this level or pretty close.

T5-10ish LACs: T15-25-ish university qualifications (high stats, really good ECs, and a little luck). Regardless of their ranking, add Wesleyan and Midd to this level for RD. (ED is a different story.)

T10-20 LACs: T20-40-ish university stats (high stats, good ECs) and perhaps demonstrated interest at certain LACs.

T20-30 LACs: T30-50-ish university stats (good stats, good ECs) and perhaps demonstrated interest at certain LACs.

FWIW, my DD was salutatorian, 1540 SAT, great ECs, etc. got into 2/3 WASPs, 1/2 Ivies, 1/1 Ivy+'s, and Bowdoin, Wesleyan, Smith, Scripps, and Macalester. Waitlisted at the other Ivy and an LAC outside the T30. Her only rejection was the one WASP.[/quote]

Could you please comment on these schools if ED?  [/quote]
