[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your best bet is to apply to any that might possibly be a good fit, then do admitted student days and make decisions based on firsthand experience. My D26 is applying to Vassar, Wes, Middlebury and while she’s definitely liberal, she’s also in a fantasy football league right now, enjoys watching sports and from the way you described your son, would be good friends with him. All the people who write things like “too woke” etc most likely haven’t had kids at these schools. Personally, I didn’t get a “too artsy” vibe from tours and info sessions as Vassar or Wes (haven’t toured Midd) they just seemed very accepting and diverse. They all sound like good fits for your kid, have him decide for himself which one is his favorite after acceptances roll out. [/quote] My DS is ‘26 and is shotgunning most all these schools. He’s an outdoorsy kid who played football until it became clear his calling was in a math class and not on a football field. Wants the LAC experience and will be happy going to any of them, Wes included. They are all hard enough to get into that he knows he’ll have to take what he gets. [/quote]
