Be sure to investigate the search tools at College Board's website-- you can search using a pretty wide array of metrics, and you can also see what average SAT scores, ACT scores, GPA, etc. are at institutions.

Also be aware that many US campuses now have more or less rigid freshman residency requirements-- this is sort of a new thing, and it really complicates life with a young student-- but most will make an exception if the student is living off-campus with a parent.
