[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dickinson falls squarely into the "why" category, meaning why would you spend that much money for a private education as a second tier school. Someone compared it to Colby, but it isn't Colby. US News ranks Colby 15th among LACs and Dickinson 37th. It's a far less prestigious school and has a reputation as a safety school for rich kids who can't get into the top 20. It's low yield (mid 20s) confirms that few student go there as their first choice college. No one will be impressed with a Dickinson degree. William & Mary is a much better school although very hard for women to get into, even in state. I'd send my kids to State U over Dickinson and save the money for grad school.
