[quote=Anonymous]I went there and thought academics were quite challenging and other students exceptionally bright. It is quite small and definitely not for everyone but for many students they were awkward in high school but blossomed at Haverford.  Many classes were small and I had several that were five students or less so it can be intense.  I did find it collaborative where others would encourage or even help you.  I got great assistance in my research for a higher level seminar class from someone I did not know that well at the time.  Another example is that when I was in law school and contacted law school alums and Haverford alums who were lawyers to network nearly everyone from Haverford responded.  Not a single alum from law school did.  They do pride themselves on honor code as it covers both social and academics and student run.  I never had a problem with it and loved the amount of trust afforded by it such as self scheduled non proctored exams.

Main line can be a bit dull and not much of a party school.  Philly is short train ride away but we never really went much.

I would suggest you look into prospective student weekends so your child can stay on campus overnight and get a feel for the school and the students.[/quote]
