[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is nothing wrong with you doing a lot if the initial legwork here, especially in light of learning differences. Consider that some pay a college counselor to come up with an initial list. It’s ok if it’s not the student doing all the work.

As a parent, you may need to guide her re: prioritizing preferences and balancing needs and wants. You’ll want a school with a helpful disability office, and you might need to deprioritize mid-larger size.

That said, many Jesuit universities (and some other Catholic schools) are mid-sized and near/in cities. Lots of atheist, non-Christian students at these schools.

Consider Loyola MD, St Joseph’s in Philly, Seton Hall, U Scranton. Her grades are excellent, but her rigor is lower than many college applicants. She’ll have good options, but don’t be afraid to help with the research.[/quote]

I was going to say Loyola/St. Joe's/Scranton! Great fits for this kid. [/quote]

+1 I was also thinking Jesuit schools make sense for this profile.

Also, I found the lists at Collegexpress to be a helpful starting point. https://www.collegexpress.com/lists/explore/?chapter_id=104&section_id=181
