[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They upped their acceptance rate to over 90% and enrollment is still droppiing. Only 350 freshman enrolled this fall and over 200 were athletes. That would put only about 75 female non-athletes in the incoming class.

An acceptance rate of 91.8% (I just looked it up) is NOT good.[/quote]

+1 especially for $83k a year![/quote]

They give crazy merit aid. Starts at $40,000/year for students with above 3.3 gpa. Also several additional scholarships students can apply for. My son attends, and it was his least expensive option except for the one public in-state he got in to. He also got into other more competitive small schools (Denison, Franklin and Marshall, Lafayette), and they were 2x to 3x as much.

He's a sports guy so I can't speak to that aspect, but his girlfriend is neither sporty nor artsy and she likes it. They are both strong students and have "free" time to pursue interests beyond their classes, like research with professors and volunteering.[/quote]
