[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Swarthmore has a stronger reputation - it makes a difference![/quote] How?[/quote] Swarthmore is a well established feeder into top PhD programs. Haverford and Bryn Mawr are excellent schools, but Swarthmore is arguably the nation's top producer of PhDs across the disciplines per capita, and the intellectual rigor and academic expectations of both the students and faculty reflect that. [/quote] Bryn Mawr is also a 'well established' feeder into top PhD programs. OPs kid may be a DS so this could be irrelevant, but this PP stating that Swarthmore is somehow more academically rigorous because they churn out more Phds is a wild statement. Bryn Mawr is highly intellectual. I consider myself the outlier because I merely have a masters, but everyone else I know from Bryn Mawr has a terminal degree- MD, joint JD program, MBA, or PhD.
