| Smart, nice, hardworking students and individual attention from professors. Beautiful campus. More outdoorsy than most NESCACs. Less political and artsy than Wesleyan or some of the others. |

Id say they attract a crowd more artsy than Wesleyan. Crunchy granola Bowdoin types are really into art, and there’s high demand for the arts courses. |

| It’s impossible to get in now. Huge endowment has allowed them to boost their first gen/URM numbers. After the athletes, not a lot of spots left. |

| Great school if you want to extend high school. It is an excellent college version of an elite boarding school. |

| Felt less nerdy than the WASP schools we visited. That might be a plus or minus depending on your kid. |

You say that a lot about LACs. Most high schoolers do not attend elite boarding schools, so a LAC is a different experience. |
