WESLEYAN 24% 2070 SAT

These are all small schools 1600-2500 students for the most part. All in small New England towns, some are better than others, is this what interests your son? Most of student life takes place on these campuses. Some of the towns, like those that service Hamilton and Weslyean feel rather depressed. Williams is extremely isolated and in a very small town with one street that is "the main drag". While this kind of living is for some it is most certainly not for others. Hope you are planning an extensive visit to all of the schools that are considerations.

Some recent stats...obviously compared to colleges by and large all of these acceptance rates are lower than average and all the SAT scores are "up there"....start with this data as this could help your son or daughter size them up and see which might be a good fit. The NESCAC is super competitive.[/quote]

chill!!!! She was generalizing..geez....you need a drink.

Trinity is in Hartford, CT.  Not a "small New England town."[/quote][/quote]

More like a small city in Puerto Rico.[/quote]
