[quote=Anonymous]Vassar is an excellent school. Historically it was part of the Seven Sisters, the group of elite women's colleges that included Radcliffe, Wellesley, Smith, Mt. Holyoke, Bryn Mawr, and Barnard. It's been coed a long time, but in the US, the women's colleges that became coed have had a harder time attracting men than the formerly men's colleges (like Williams) that have turned coed have in attracting women (you can develop your own theory on why that is). Vassar is considered especially strong in theater, English, the humanities. It's quite a difficult admit. A student I know (a legacy) who was a strong but not very top student was rejected there. I think people underrate how hard it is to get in. Poughkeepsie is depressing but bigger and closer to NYC (and other cities) than Williams. [/quote]
