[quote=Anonymous]Start by looking at the classics departments because that will sort things out very quickly -- some schools won't have one (Hiram), others will be tiny (2 classics profs at Earlham), others will have a different emphasis than what DC had in mind, and a few might look great. Then check drama departments. My quick and random application of this process left me thinking Macalester looked especially good. Still expensive, but 64% of the kids are on financial aid and the average grant is close to $30,000 according to their website. Re selectivity -- 39% admission rate overall; 49% for early decision. Looks like DC would need to be in top 25% of her HS class to be competitive. Couldn't find average SAT scores, but 1260-1450 was the central range.[/quote]
