[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's my advice. If she can get into Bryn Mawr, then she can likely get into Smith. We visited both, and Smith is so much more dynamic and well resourced. Bryn Mawr seemed faded and oddly overemphasizes it its relationship with Haverford (which seems far less invested in the relationship). I'd definitely visit Smith before doing ED. And while there, visit Mount Holyoke as well, which our DD and I also liked better than Bryn Mawr, and seemed like a great community. Kenyon is a very good college and they definitely promote their writing program. But I've been there a lot over the past few years for another child's sports events, and Kenyon is truly in the middle of nowhere. It's a fairly nice campus with a great athletic center. But you truly can't believe how isolated it is until you drive there. I would also add that, despite some artsy writing students, the overall vibe feels more Midwestern umc subueban somewhat preppy. [/quote] I'm realizing I didn't answer the question. In head to head for a student very interested in writing, I'd take Kenyon over Bryn Mawr. Everything about Bryn Mawr seemed like time passed it by. And Kenyon's writing major is its signature program. I'm sure they'll make sure it stays excellent. But if your DD likes women's colleges enough to consider ED at Bryn Mawr, I'd go with Smith, Mount Holyoke, Kenyon, and Bryn Mawr, in that order. [/quote]
