[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, seriously consider Wesleyan in CT.  It’s a bit larger for SLACs.  My daughter applied to a couple of the schools you referenced and ended up going to Wesleyan.[/quote]

Not on our radar. Can you tell me more about why you think it’s a good fit? [/quote]

DP  DC graduated last year from Wes and had a wonderful experience.  It’s a diverse student body that while intellectually engaged isn’t competitive at all......very collaborative.  At 2,800 students it’s an unusually large LAC which can make a difference when compared to schools with 1200-1400 students.  There’s a very robust arts community.....both fine and performing.....with hundreds of exhibitions and performances on campus every year.  The location is also different from the usually more remote locations.  Middletown is a short walk away with many restaurants and stores.  The progressive housing plan was a great way to keep students on campus which enhanced the community.  Many research opportunists and my DC built strong relationships with many of his professors.  My other DC attends an Ivy and the Wes experience in my opinion is vastly superior.[/quote]
