[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was looking at NESCAC and from what I can tell through research and campus visit is that they all attract the same kind of applicants within varying degrees. It was almost like culture/student population was not a consideration in picking the school because it was same type of kids at each one.[/quote]

Have to disagree with the post above as there are discernable differences among the NESCAC schools just as Ivy League schools differ.

Wes is woke to a higher degree than Trinity or Conn College or Tufts.

Tufts proximity to Boston activities gives Tufts a different vibe. Not much school spirit as the lack of isolation allows students to go their own ways as opposed to being forced into a small community due to a remote, isolated location.

Trinity College still has the preppy set & concerns for safety beyond the campus boundaries.

Conn College seems to be more feminine than the others. (I'm sure that this will not evoke any responses.)

Size & location influence each campus culture. More important to visit small schools than large universities due lack of significant options.[/quote]
