[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bucknell is a tad smaller than the range you posted, but it checks most of your other boxes and is popular with sporty kids. Huge intramural sports scene. Most fraternities field teams, and freshmen (who can't rush until their second year) join teams with guys in their hall or classes. The alumni network is amazing, too. Most grads end up in lucrative jobs on The Street. Like at most LACs, demonstrated interest matters, especially for high stats kids, so he should definitely visit.[/quote]

How are women’s intramural sports? Similarly popular?

Also, how does Bucknell compare to Lehigh and Lafayette? I know they’re different sizes and in different parts of PA, but how about the vibe/culture? Do they all yield protect? How can we find that info more generally? (Which schools yield protect high stats kids) [/quote]

Lehigh is high ranked, larger, strong in liberal arts and engineering. It’s a university though not a huge one. It’s not far from Lafayette.

Lafayette and Bucknell are SLACS and more comparable. But Bucknell is not a city or suburban location, it’s in a rural area. [/quote]
