[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve noticed this too. Back in the day, I got into Denison and Wooster, and was rejected from Oberlin. Nowadays, I think I could get into Oberlin but probably not Denison. [b]Denison seems to be doing better than PA liberal arts schools, which seem similar[/b]. I think it was eventually pass Kenyon too, in maybe 10 years. Kenyon is attracts a lot of English students and has a pretty low percentage of STEM students, which I think hurts it nowadays. But it’s not falling like Oberlin. I guess we’ll see too if Wooster ever moves past Oberlin too.[/quote]

That's an interesting observation. Where would you slot Denison in the PA pecking order, as of right now? Clearly it's not at the level of Swat, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, but I think it's just as clearly ahead of Dickinson and Gettysburg. That puts it somewhere in the Bucknell, Lafayette, F&M mix. I'd lean more to the F&M side now, but I also think it may have the highest ceiling of any of those schools.[/quote]

I was not thinking of Swarthmore, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, or Bucknell. But I think it’s doing better than Lafayette, F&M, Dickinson, and Gettysburg.[/quote]

I think [b]Denison and Gettysburg are very similar.[/b]  I'd be suprised if every applicant to one, isn't also applying to the other.  Same demographic.[/quote]

If denison & Gettysburg are similar, then Colgate is the Mothership.[/quote]
