SUNY Oswego is a great school. Recently classified into it's own category within the SUNY system is works well for typical students. Multiple strong programs. Bob Moritz (Chair of PwC), Linda Cohn and Steve Levy (ESPN), Al Roker are all graduates.

I'm in the area. Not too surprising. It's a back up for many strong students in CA.

Wow - I’m shocked. A few kids go to Santa Clara from our school a year. If they’re on this list, a lot of colleges are going to close in the next twenty years with the demographic cliff.



Santa Clara will eventually have to adjust the amount of aid given.

Willamette and Whitman, both good schools

But this might also be a list of 200 schools most likely to close in the next 10 years

I am curious to see what schools are added in mid-May and if this year will have as many as last year.

There are some solid schools on there like Loyola Chicago and Drexel. What one of the PPs said about the tough market for mid-tier privates is true.

Drew has faced serious financial challenges. Had to sell off their arboretum on campus to the local town for funds

I’m not. Those smaller, mid-tier liberal arts colleges will continue to struggle with enrollment. I saw on their social media page today that Muhlenberg has ailluminated advertising sign at Times Square. They’re trying to market HARD! I’ve also heard they’re throwing out last minute merit money. Must have struggled to fill their incoming class.

Michigan Tech. If you can handle the cold, and getting there, it's a great alternative to Virginia Tech

Lots of interesting schools. Decent ones like Duquesne, Dayton and Belmont. Also big state schools like Oklahoma and Arizona are there too.
