[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oldest child went to Amherst, middle one to Williams - both for sports. DCUM area so pls don’t ask sport etx. Amherst kid luved the school and experience, and felt it was full of kind, fun, nice, high end academically but pretty regular kids at the end of day. Williams kid enjoyed time for the most part, but felt a very real and pervasive pretentiousness throughout the student body - both amongst the athletes and non-athletes. Top caliber kids for sure, but she compared the obnoxiousness to be similar to Duke kids - who she can’t stand for the most part.  Amherst is the clear winner in our family, and hoping #3 enjoys her overnite..[/quote]

Your post confirms our impression after visiting both. We found Williams impressive but it did feel snobbish and rather chilly socially. Amherst had a friendlier, more low-key feel. Amherst moved to the top after the visits (including other LACs), and NARP DC is very happy there now.[/quote]

Also unhooked DC got in ED.[/quote]
