[quote=Anonymous]New poster here. OP, if your son is doing an overnight at Colby, be sure he also does an overnight at W&M to get that experience at both places. An overnight can really sway a kid (as we saw with several families we knew) and your son should get the same time at one school as at the other. I'd also advise him to be sure to spend time in the communities on both schools' doorsteps, so he knows about the towns' sizes, demographics, what's offered off campus, etc. And he really should consider the weather. I know that my DC has said DC doesn't want to look at schools in places with long, snowy winters as that has zero appeal to DC -- your son may love that. Or he may like snow but realize he doesn't want it for the majority of the year.... I don't have a dog in this fight re: either W&M or Colby, but he needs to think in terms of living four years in a row in either place. [/quote]
