[quote=Anonymous]DC is at an OOS SLAC. The main drivers were the majors and the flexibility of curriculum. DC was very attracted to smaller colleges without a strict core curriculum set of requirements and found exactly that. It wasn't just about the subjects for DC, the choice also was about how things were taught. Also, merit aid was not necessary for us (I realize that's an advantage DC had that not all students have). We knew we'd be full pay and are fine with that. OP, be aware, I'm seeing posts on here about merit aid at LACs and that's great if they give it, but not all LACs give merit aid. DC's does not, only need-based financial aid. DC did look at both UVA and William and Mary, liked the latter OK, the former was too vast and the major good but...again, too vast. And in the end liked the idea of being in a different environment and meeting people from all over. [/quote]
