[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grinnell is a Plan B for kids who don’t get into Swat or Haverford. Kenyon is a Plan B for kids who don’t get into a top NESCAC. Oberlin is just Oberlin. Kids who go there want to be there. It’s not for everyone.[/quote] Silly comment. Grinnell is ranked higher than Haverford and has a much bigger endowment. DC (SAT 1580) wanted a SLAC and was accepted to Swat, Haverford, Grinnell, Kenyon, and some other top SLACs, and chose Grinnell. DC preferred Haverford to Swat. I thought Swat was the most similar to Grinnell. After submitting apps, DC felt increasingly drawn to the Midwest. For DC, the choice came down to Carleton, Grinnell, or Kenyon. They felt Grinnell was the best fit. So far, so good. [/quote]
