[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love this thread, except for the annoying rankings person.

I have a kid looking at Oberlin, Kenyon, Wooster, Grinnell, Macalaster.  Plus WM, which he will be accepted to based on Naviance. Basically SLACs with merit money (donut hole family).

If you have a kid at one of these schools and they love it or hate it, why? What is a sketch of the type of kid who does well.   I have a brilliant but quirky and socially awkward kid with drama and music interests.  Small groups, not large crowds. Has a 504 for  ADHD and may need some supports in executive functioning. Is that the sort of kid who would do well?

Also, if your kid looked at these schools but ended up somewhere else, where and why?

I don’t want to hijack, but I love hearing that kids are doing well at Oberlin, Grinnell and Juanita.  It would be great to know what type of kid succeeds at these schools and why. . [/quote]

Consider Lawrence. Lots of similarities to the schools you mentioned, plus very strong music and track record of merit aid.
