[quote=Anonymous]Ivy League grad here, who in retrospect (or even during college) wished I had gone to a small liberal arts school like Amherst or Williams - the top tier liberal arts schools are as hard to get into as the Ivies often, but they feature a different type of environment and experiences. PLEASE do not ever use the term "little Ivies" again - it is pathetic and a disservice to the high caliber small liberal arts schools. There is an actual list of what schools are in the Ivy League, the same way there is a list of which schools are in the Big 10. It's just a classification. Instead maybe focus on the best fit for the personality and interests of your kid - would he thrive at a big, medium or small sized school - urban or rural or in between, etc. what other features and 'personalities' of the school match with your kid's interests. Apply to some 'reach' schools, some that match your kid's score levels and some 'safety' schools. [/quote]
