We visited Lawrence and St. Olaf recently. Lawrence was such a disappointment. I’m surprised by the recommendations here. Also no longer interested in Muhlenberg based on that visit. St. Olaf was nice. Beautiful campus and facilities were far nicer than the other two. Just seemed like a better school overall. Carleton is in the same town and is in a better location IMHO because it’s near the cute downtown. St. Olaf is on a hill and separate from the town.

Thoughts on Dickinson?

Good grief! St. Olaf is walkable to "downtown" Northfield; Carleton is a smidge closer, but honestly, it is not much of a difference. Headed there tomorrow for the class of 2020 commencement. Um yah yah!

We liked St. Olaf but the location of Carleton is definitely better. At St. Olaf they have a shuttle to downtown. As you drive up to the campus, it is clearly separate from surrounding houses and the town.
