[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son worked hard for his 3.4 gpa at his Maryland private school. He didn’t take AP classes. His SAT score was 1300 (650 in both math and verbal). He thinks he wants to major in economics but he would like to explore other options. He is looking for a college with other students near his academic level. He is leaning towards staying within a 4 hour drive but would consider a school across the country. He feels overwhelmed in the city and he feels relaxed in green spacious environments. Do you have suggestions for where to look (both public and private)?[/quote]

Rollins College, St. Lawrence University, Denison, Colorado College, Kenyon College, University of Denver, University of Richmond, are some to consider. He will be pushed academically at Kenyon College, in my opinion.

If your son wants a larger school and would be interested in a business related major:

University of Arizona, University of Utah, University of Denver, University of San Diego, University of Vermont, Northern Arizona University, & Indiana University are some to consider.

When discussing these schools with your son, watch for any strong reactions/responses that might help to better refine his search by better defining his likes and dislikes.

If he can manage to get into the University of Arizona Honors College, the trek to Tucson will be worthwhile.
