[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a nephew who is facing this decision. He has visited both schools and preferred the environment and students at Bowdoin College. [b]His father and most of his friends (he attends an east coast feeder school that sends many to Ivies/top SLACs) are telling him it would be foolish to turn down Williams for Bowdoin.[/b] They are roughly the same cost. Could someone with real world experience share if there's something significant that really sets Williams College apart? Thank you. [/quote] Curious which feeder school ? Deerfield Academy ? Career goal of the student ? In what fields do the parents work ? How many students does he know or has he met at each school ? Is the student's experience at each school just a one or two day visit ? Prestige of LACs only matters in the Northeast US. In other regions of the country many may wonder why he didn't go to a National University.[/quote]
