Hi HC maniac we’ve been expecting you. You really do less for your school when you post this on every thread you can.

Georgetown, Boston College, Holy Cross, Fordham, and Santa Clara as the top non east coast option. Those are the top Jesuit schools. Anything else is just someone trying to boost their Alma mater

By area, Georgetown resides on 104 acres. For perspective, this would place it intermediate in size between Trinity (CT) and Bates.

What do people know about Saint Louis University? Any good ?

Fordham, the Loyolas, St. Joseph's, Marquette, Creighton, Boston College, St. Louis, etc.

My DC just graduated from Fordham and had a fantastic experience. We are not Catholic but really appreciated the Jesuit approach to learning and engaging in the larger community. Something to note is that the school has two campuses: Rose Hill and Lincoln Center. Rose Hill is the leafier, gated/walled off campus in the Bronx and Lincoln Center is in Midtown Manhattan. My DC majored in psychology so LC was their campus, but they had had classes at both campuses some semesters. If your child likes cities, it’s a great place to go to school. Good luck!

Fewer than 150 colleges and universities in the USA have that big of an endowment. Thousands don’t. Weirdo.

Probably not. Too much of a difference in rankings.

Same poster. My kid applied to John Carroll but not Case. He isn't a Case quality student. Not even close.

My daughter says campus is “manageable size” with a great urban environment surrounding it. I kind of like that things are close together and she’s not trekking all over to get to classes etc.

Yeah, cause historically the Catholic Church is not a well funded institution
