[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reaches: Brown, Yale, Harvey Mudd, Stanford (stay away from Cornell, Dartmouth, Penn, Harvard, Duke). Targets: Hamilton, Haverford, Middlebury, Bowdoin, Bates, Davidson, Wake, W&M Safeties: Beloit, St. Olaf, Denison, Kenyon, Colby (Given stats and a small elite private school, these targets are different than what many would suggest for a public school student).[/quote] This is a really solid list, though I'd replace Harvey Mudd with Rice, personally, based on OP's description of the student. I would maybe drop Wake, but really like W&M for them. (I think someone else's Swarthmore rec is possibly a miss for this student as well, but I do like their Carleton rec as a high target.) Also would recommend adding in a rolling application in August to Pitt (or another rolling school, but Pitt is an easy one), to have an acceptance in hand by October, to take some stress off (even if she's not over the moon about the school itself).[/quote]
