williams is leagues ahead of amherst, pomona, swarthmore, bowdoin... what else would compete? in terms of academic opportunities, faculty resources, caliber of student attending, post grad outcomes- williams is not only above all the lower ranked lacs, but up to par with the ivies (obviously ignoring barnard which I functionally consider a school within columbia U) |
UChicago is an ED2 app after Amherst (which has no ED2) denies your ED2 application. Not even sure UChicago is top 20 if you include SLACs. |
Vanderbilt? Rice? C'mon. |
Any school that has ED2 should not be in contention. That also means Swarthmore, Rice and Hopkins. |
Leagues is hilarious. Post grad outcomes? Not the best. Caliber of student attending? Not the best. Faculty resources? Maybe, not even sure how you’d measure that when these institutions aren’t research centers. Academic opportunities? Come on, one of its peers has access to 4 other liberal arts colleges for crying out loud! The Claremont colleges are the strongest model. Pomona has the best resources, CMC has the highest earnings, Harvey Mudd has the best grad school outcomes across all LACs. Williams is wealthier than all of them, but it doesn’t have the most resources as a condition of being a college in the middle of nowhere. |
Glad your kid likes Williams but come on. The data does not support your claims. |
It’s actually a way tougher admit than Chicago ED. Georgetown has no ED. But don’t see either as top10. |
Nowhere is this true. Williams definitely isn’t the lac with the best post grad outcomes, that’s blatantly false for both grad school admissions and industry results. Maybe you’re just speaking to finance? |
Williams is the strongest overall! Usnews loves it for a reason! I’m not even sure Pomona is a top lac, seems very flashy and new- ersatz at best. |
Pretty much. |
+1, also no schools with sub 50-60% yield. |
Lollllllllllll |
