Use this page to turn recommendations into a focused shortlist and a practical plan. The three cards surface schools that align most closely with your current profile; read the one-line angle and the supporting sentence to understand why each match makes sense, then use Profile Fit to compare at a glance—remember, it reflects alignment, not a guarantee.
The Detailed Analysis Table converts that alignment into concrete levers you can act on—specific programs, centers, tracks, labs, and co-curricular opportunities mapped to your strengths and goals. It also adds context with Tier/Competitiveness and an indicative Admission Probability range so you can calibrate ambition and realism as you build your list.
Start by keeping one or two schools whose rationale clearly echoes your strongest themes and intended majors. Open the linked resources to plan targeted steps—courses to prioritize, labs to contact, competitions or publications to pursue, and campus communities to engage. As you create verifiable evidence in those areas, your alignment improves, essays become easier to focus, and "nearby alternatives" in the same band become viable additions to your shortlist.
