Whatever school, just make sure tuition is within your means.

Nothing worse than graduating completely full of debt. I didn't understand the repercussions at 18. I would have been paying off student loans till my mid-40's if there hadn't been a death in the family.

While I'm appreciative of my education and the times I had, if I could do it all over again, I'd probably go to a school in state... Or at the very least take core curriculum classes at a community college to cut down on the cost.

Any AP credits?

Anything that can reduce unnecessary course loads (which can mean graduating earlier) is worth it!

Claremont colleges on the left coast, NESCACs on the East coast come to mind first. Colgate too. The seven sister schools are mostly co-ed now as well. My wife works with Trinity, Wesleyan and Conn College if you want some inside contacts at any of those just PM me. Good luck with things.
