[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid got into all of those schools RD, which would he pick?[/quote] at the moment, he doesnt have a front runner. he'll spend a lot more time this summer doing research. we've visited each.[/quote] Broaden up the scope in your campus visit to include at least a couple of national universities. Johns Hopkins for one, which has some significant ED1/ED2 advantage. Our schools sent a few ED there every year. Northwestern also has a top philosophy department, ED advantage is real there. [/quote] For what reason? If the boy enjoys liberal arts colleges, no necessity to go to a research university, especially in a field like Philosophy. No one suggests LACs when people's lists are entirely Research universities.[/quote] OP said DC hasn't done campus visit yet, it's all very premature. As long as it a good fit, I don't think one should care it's a lac or a research university. Quite honest, I don't get it when folks say it's hard for one to love both Penn and Williams. [/quote] OP sorry if I was unclear - "we've visited each" means we have done campus visits to these schools. [/quote]
