[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Fordham and many/most other Jesuit colleges fall into this category.[/b] Drexel Maybe Quinnipiac? U Hartford? I’m not as sure about these two.[/quote] This. My DD is applying to W&M, UMW + a bunch of LACs. I do worry a bit that the LACs may feel small (she doesn't think it's an issue) so would have liked her to consider more midsize schools but it seemed like most we could find in that W&M size were Jesuit and she's also adamant that she's not going to a religious-connected school (yes, I know Jesuit schools are religious in that way but she has very strong opinions!)[/quote] That her choice, of course, but if you think she is leaving some great schools off the list based on a misinformed stereotype, you may want to set up a visit to at least one so she can see that college is college no matter who founded the place. Most of the coveted Ivy league schools are also connected to religions. It might be the best thing for her education to live something she wrote off without actually understanding.[/quote]
