[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Washington and Lee

Great academics, highly selective, merit scholarships, strong Greek Life, very small town, nationally drawn student body, scenic campus, very strong alumni network, relatively conservative campus, but the operative word is relatively. Not for everyone, but certainly a great fit for some.

Did not go there but have visited and met some alum. [/quote]

It's an excellent school if the right "fit" but does tend to have a wealthy student body.[/quote]

I went to W&L. The student body there is no wealthier than Davidson, Wake, Emory or Tulane. In fact, W&L got a huge gift for need based aid and started a new scholarship program a few years back (called the Johnson scholarship). Now, fully 20% of every incoming class is funded through this program in addition to the FA program that already existed.

OP, i know you are looking deep south, but you should definitely give W&L a try. It is the most selective small liberal arts college in the south behind Davidson, but Davidson does not really have a southern feel to it. [/quote]
