[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So far have seen on this board:  Loyola MD, Loyola Chicago, Xavier, Marquette, St Joes Philly, Dayton, Denver, Maybe Seton Hall?  seem to be a lot of Catholic ones which is ok with us even though not very religious. Anyone have experience with these or any others to add?  Undecided major but most likely accounting or marketing.  Loyola MD probably too small for kid but keeping it on here because they have generous aid and we are price sensitive.[/quote]

Well the Jesuit/catholic schools are awesome.  They truly care about the students and ensuring they do well in college.  We are a completely non-religious family (one parent was christian, other hindu, we don't follow either). The jesuit schools like Marquette, Gonzaga, etc are not overly religious.  You have to take a few religion courses and philosophy courses but other than that, it's not forced on you.  What you get is a great experience at a school with only 5-8K undergrads most of the Time, and professors that value teaching undergrad students

+ 1 million. Kid toured St Joe’s, Marquette, Loyola Chicago and going to St. Joe’s. [/quote]

OP here- can you share some of the things you liked about these schools? From Chicago so familiar with Loyola. A lot of kids from Chicago go to Marquette and are very loyal alumni but don't know much about it.  What tipped the needle to St. Joe? A colleague of mine mentioned it has a lot of commuters but I have no idea if that is true. Kid loves Philly so keeping it on the list.[/quote]

Also interested![/quote]
