[quote=Anonymous]Here's another loop:

Lafayette-- pretty campus. Very impressed with facilities for engineering. Seems like they can appeal to a wide variety of interests.  They even have a dog dorm/house. AO was lovely and engaging. Combined Aug visit with early interview. They offered to waive app fee.

Lehigh-- beautiful campus, but we didn't see much because no tours due to first year move in, and DD not feeling well.  Also,  we knew this would not be an ED, so there to see it and demonstrate interest. A little surprised at how inarticulate admissions person was in presentation.  A lot of pronunciation,  grammar,  maybe fact issues as well. She was relatively new, though. Still, it fell flat. Even so, DD planned to apply RD anyway based on program research.

Drexel-- expected everything contemporary,  but nice surprise to see the charming interior of main building. AO who presented info session was so dry. Very hard to engage and get excited there. Loved our humanities major tour guide, though. Super engaging and bright. Made DD more interested as she is a blend of stem and humanities interests, so we were concerned Drexel might be too stem-y, but she (humn tour guide) seemed to love it. Decent facilities. Mixed emotions about coop schedule and about being next door to Penn.[/quote]
