[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also interested Davidson alternatives, can we pretty please not derail the convo to High Point. I’ve toured it, they couldn’t be more different, and that’s fine. Can we please move on. [/quote]

what about Davidson does your kid like? I think size and academically and socially a lot of the Patriot League (Lehigh, Lafayette, Bucknell, Colgate) are close in certain respects [/quote]

Our issue is that child is trying to stay close to NC. All the alternatives we’ve found are too far away. Agree with your suggestions. They like the small to mid size private, their focus on character, cute downtown, liked adopt a grandparent program (seemed like a nice connection to locals) not too Greek or party driven, kinder academic student body that can be a little quirkier than all kids dressing same even though mine dresses that way too. B student from a rigorous private with high ACT also. Good extracurriculars and some leadership, nothing wow and no hooks, full-pay.[/quote]

Has your student toured Elon? I do think it’s a great suggestion based on what you’ve described.  I was also thinking UNC Asheville could be worth a look, but that would be tough now post-hurricane (and the school has been struggling financially, cutting several programs recently). But it sounds like a potential fit in some ways. What about a school like Christopher Newport University in Newport News, VA? Is that too far from NC?[/quote]
