Alfred Univ, NY; Merrimack Coll, MA. Lots of other small univ./colleges out there with STEM possibilities willing to take a chance on a students with not necessarily the strongest scores.

I don't think 38,000 would be called "small"

I don't think Denison, Dickinson, Gettysburg, Bryn Mawr, or Haverford is happening with a 3.3. Of course, Naviance/Scoir will be the best predictor.

If you're looking at SLU, look at Clarkson too. They're next door to each other, with Clarkson being engineering and STEM-focused instead of liberal arts. Both are small universities.

However, biology and chemistry are liberal arts fields, and this student doesn't appear to desire engineering.

Clarkson is strong in both science and engineering. Are you arguing that chemistry and biology aren't sciences?

Clark is a great choice. Not sure if you can get in with a B average.
