[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it interesting that the SLAC list is pretty limited and not that impressive [/quote]

There are over 600 grads. The list is incomplete.

Also, this list shows were kids attended. Not where they got in. Personally, my kid would go to a lesser LAC with merit and we pay full price for s higher ranked  one.[/quote]

I’m from the Northeast and noticed that SLACs don’t seem very popular. I once asked why so many people choose out of state publics and got crucified. I think it is a mix of money and low acceptance rates.[/quote]

Applications are certainly up more at state publics but the top SLACs are still popular among a subset of families with strong students (full pay and an increasing number of first gen and lower income families who qualify for substantial financial aid). Applications have increased substantially at most of the top SLACs over the last decade with schools like Davidson reporting record number of applications this year. For some families, COA at Amherst or Williams is less than UVA/W&M. [/quote]
