[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haverford is smaller but it and Bryn Mawr are the only schools that offer cross-registration where I’ve seen people regularly take advantage—the campuses are very nearly adjacent, in upscale streetcar suburbs with restaurants, shops, cafes, movie theaters, concert venues nearby. Access to Philly is quick via train. Swarthmore is further out from the city in a smaller town. It’s more prestigious but seems less fun to attend for sure.[/quote]

Not sure if you are commenting on just this tri-co, but more broadly in terms of colleges where students cross-register, campuses are actually adjacent, and there are real town amenities and a city nearby, you really can’t beat the Claremont Colleges / 5Cs: Pomona, Claremont McKenna, Scripps, Pitzer and Harvey Mudd. There is no other comparable offering is US higher ed. [/quote]
And the mind numbing Claremont College boosting begins. No one wants to live in Claremont and the schools are tiny. Much prefer Haverford, Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore.[/quote]
