[quote=Anonymous]Well, what specifically is a "match" about Georgetown? Catholicism? Location? Size? Type of student that attends? Similar academic strengths?

I went to Georgetown and worked at Boston College for several years. I think they are very similar. Jesuit, large metro area (tho BC's campus is more suburban than Georgetown's), pretty pre-professional in vibe, attract similar students.

Santa Clara and Fordham would other Jesuit universities to consider. St. Louis U or Marquette for safeties. Villanova is Catholic, medium sized, suburban campus outside of Philly, maybe a little more conservative.

Non-Catholic universities that are similar to Georgetown in the sense they are in a metro area (either urban or just outside a city), medium size, more pre-professional in feel, largely attract ambitious, smart, conventional students: 
Wash U in St. Louis
Northwestern
Tulane
Penn
Vandy
Duke
Emory
U of Miami

Notre Dame and UVA if large metro is negotiable (UVA a little bigger than desired size).[/quote]
