Likely with Brown as a reach and WM as a target, but this is not knowing stats of course:

Pitt


Not NE or California, but University of Denver would be a likely as well.

if your kid is at all a reasonable candidate for Brown then William and Mary should be a likely.

Same. My kids likelies were GW and American though- not Pitt

Targets- WM, BC

Got into the reach, as well as targets and likelies

Perhaps Claremont McKenna


Wrong on so many levels. First off, the 11% acceptance rate.

Likely should be a state school in the state you live in. Depending on the state, that might mean the flagship or it might not.

Kid is looking for schools with similar vibes but with a higher acceptance rate. Ideas?

Northeast or CA ideally, but would consider other areas (not red states).
