[quote=Anonymous]My kid is very interested in Wesleyan, and we’ve visited/researched (and also know people who have attended). Based on what I’ve heard about Swarthmore, I don’t see them as analogous; Wesleyan does not seem intense, which is the word I’ve always heard used to describe Swarthmore. Wesleyan also has open curriculum, so I’ve seen it compared more often to other open-curriculum schools like Vassar and Brown. Lots of creative types. It’s also very LGBTQ+-friendly. Finally, it’s bigger than most SLACs (more than 3,000 students) and a university rather than a college (meaning it has a small number of grad students). It’s also pretty diverse compared to other SLACs. The others you mentioned do not appeal to my kid, FWIW, mostly because too small or too preppy or too intense. Hope this helps.[/quote]
