[quote=Anonymous]Recently, I talked to a coworker whose daughter is attending Pomona College in California this fall after turning down offers at Yale, Stanford, and Brown. Apparently this isn't uncommon, and there are a number of students picking top LACs over Ivies/comparable universities every year. I didn't want to badger further about why she had done that, so I'm interested from those with similar experiences- why would someone turn down a prestigious university over a liberal arts college? I don't know much about Pomona, and my little research indicates that it is a reputable school, but it only has 1600 students and an admissions rate double that of Stanford. [/quote]
