[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter likes the small liberal arts colleges, mostly because of the smaller size and she wants to study economics. When she told the college counselor of a few (Williams, Bates, Haverford) the counselor said, "Oh no, you won't fit in at any of them". My impression is that liberal art colleges tend to have quirky kids. My DD is outgoing, sporty and smart. Will she be a total outcast? Unfortunately, she hasn't been on any of the campuses yet because of Covid. We will take a look, hopefully in the fall.[/quote] She should apply to Wellesley. For one, Wellesley has one of the best undergraduate econ departments in the U.S., and women who major in Econ at Wellesley are amongst the most successful women in the field. For another, Wellesley recruits true scholar-athletes. Some will also be quirky, but many others will not be. [/quote]
