[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loved Amherst when I visited a million years ago, so I'd ED there. Although I didn't see Swarthmore and I think I might have loved it too.

But if I had a kid who had so little opinion on geography etc . . . that they were asking this, I'd have them ED to a SLAC that was also excellent and a little easier to get into.  [b]Grinnell or Middlebury [/b]or something.  (I don't have a kid who wants SLAC so I am not that knowledgeable).  Why pick a WASP?[/quote]
Absolutely. Go down a rung and ED might actually help. (Bowdoin is not down a rung.)[/quote]

Bowdoin’s stats are nearly identical to Middlebury’s. Biggest difference is that Middlebury is much larger. [/quote]
Don’t make the mistake of excluding Bowdoin from the WASP tier; tons of athletes and a very difficult admit. Midd (relatively speaking) is a much easier admit, especially because it takes 70% of its class ED.

Probably the school most likely to join WASP + Bowdoin in the next decade is CMC.[/quote]

Bowdoin isn’t a more difficult admit than Middlebury. [/quote]
