[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stanford has a slightly higher freshman retention rate (98%) than the other California schools in the top 25 (CalTech 97% Cal, USC, UCLA all 96%), but even 96% is very strong and no need concern. As others have noted, Stanford (~7K) has a far smaller undergrad population (USC~18K, Cal & UCLA ~30K)[/quote] Harvey Mudd and Pomona also have 98% retention rates and I would put them right in line with the other top 25 universities. Much smaller, though, but for a student desiring a Stanford like experience with a diversity of strong programs and bright undergraduates, the Claremont Colleges collectively are a good and less selective alternative.[/quote]
