[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wesleyan's admit rate is higher, although all of these schools are reaches by definition since they admit less than 20% of applicants. I think Wes also has more of an artsy scene. Make sure you read this thread for ideas of safeties and matches: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1027917.page And consider looking at some LACs outside the Northeast where your kid might have some geographic advantage (or at least not a geographic disadvantage!)[/quote] Not true any more. Wesleyan is extremely hard to get into now, as are most of the others on the list. What about Bates? Colby? Hamilton? Colgate? They are all fine schools and they are in cold areas. [/quote] Colby, Colgate, and Hamilton are comparably competitive to Wesleyan. In fact, I think the Colby admit rate is nearly half that of Wesleyan for the last two years. [/quote]
