[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Give the midwestern schools a good look.[/b] Someone has already mentioned Carlton and Macalaster. Also look at University of Chicago, Ripon, Washington University (St. Louis), Grinnell, Cornell College, Lawrenceville.... A different part of the country adds something intangible to the experience. And I am guessing that some geographic diversity might help your DC.

And don't rule it out for $$ reasons until you find out what aid--merit and need-based--becomes available.

U Michigan(Ann Arbor)  has a "college within the college" for liberal arts that is very highly respected. Or was 20 years ago.[/quote]

Gustavus Aldophus, Macalester, Carelton, Beloit, St. Olaf's, Augustana (IL), Knox College, Cornell, Monmouth College,  Colorado College...

any of the Associated Colleges of the Midwest, really[/quote]

What do you know about Knox? My DD has gotten excited about it as a very likely and they've invited her to apply for free with many scholarship possibilities. I have not heard much but she's planning to apply even though she's considerably above their range. Any thoughts would be great![/quote]
