[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous]OP here - Well- since you asked -  DC is leaning towards business (entrepreneurship) or law with some sort of tech focus.   Would like to be close to internship opportunities so he can get some real world experience before he graduates.  Suburban setting with access to city/town would be a plus.  Looking for a place that is intellectual yet active/outdoorsy/sporty.      2,000-12,000 students.   He is a pretty easy going kid and gets along with all kinds of people, so in that sense he is open to checking out a range of places to see what clicks.[/quote][/b]

That's not Dickinson or Gettysburg.  We ran into the same problem with DC who wanted computer science and game design.  The smaller SLACs usually don't offer a computer science degree.  DC wound up at a university to get the majors he wanted.  [b]Dickinson also wants to see a 4.0 GPA.[/[/b]quote]

Yeah, they might want to see that but that's not what they are getting. Mine had barely a 3.0, although good scores, and got in (and went). They do have a very good business major (but it is not a business degree), and good off campus programs/internships, but it's clearly not a suburb of anything. Sounds like Northeastern is what you want OP, but that's gotten harder to get into. Or maybe Boston University.[/quote]
