[quote=Anonymous]If you can identify one school that is a good prospect, a helpful tool for uncovering similar schools can be the Fiske guide "overlaps" feature. For each college Fiske lists other schools to which applicants to the profiled school also applied. So, for example, if you like Hobart/Wm Smith, you can look at the overlaps and see that students who applied there also applied to Union, St Lawrence, Colby Hamilton and Skidmore. While the schools on that list vary in selectivity they share similar characteristics in terms of size, location, campus culture, etc. [/quote]
