[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can say the same about Occidental, Miami Ohio and Sarah Lawrence. Would add Conn College, Trinity College, Mount Holyoke & Hampshire in that mix, too. [/quote]

no not really

Bennington has a very arts focus and around 67% acceptance rate, not a very DMV obsessive's focus

Occidental has the United Nations internships and a 38% acceptance rate and is frequently discussed here. As is Trinity and Miami Ohio[/quote]

Occidental is seriously struggling financially, and Miami OH has a much higher acceptance rate than it used to.[/quote]

Someone keeps posting that Oxy is struggling financially but it scores fine on the Forbes financial health grades (and making cuts/layoffs during the pandemic isn’t evidence it is seriously struggling)[/quote]

Yes, we all know the Oxy Is Struggling poster. [/quote]

I’m glad this was called out bc I know someone who is just a great all around, super smart kid, who is very excited to attend Oxy.  It’s a great school [/quote]

Agreed - we love Oxy. It was the least competitive among DCs list but they were considering it over 2 other admits that were much higher. Great IR options, nice community, top notch outreach for admitted students, great location. Eventually they were pushed aside by some heavy hitters - but it's my favorite among DCs "will not attend" set.[/quote]
