Yes Bryn Mawr an all girls school can take classes at Haverford it's a bus ride away and its reciprocal. Haverford is half girls and half boys. Bryn Mawr is all girls. So the campus becomes 4 girls for every 1 guy. Great if your kid is a straight male. Your son would love it.

Well, we live in the DC area today! Yes, he is close with his friends and others from different classes. The school is so small everyone knew everyone, I think. The nice thing was there was Bryn Mawr down the street and the had access to Philly and the suburbs. I think that was why he picked HC over other choices.

49k per year.

I am so excited I got into Haverford. It's going to be the best 4 years ever. Not.

It looks like a fall back school for kids that didn't get in elsewhere or kids afraid to be at a larger school.

LOL. Not everyone strives to be in this area.

My spouse is. He's been very successful in his career which has taken him (and us) around the world.

Georgetown, U of MD, UVA, Penn State, Syracuse, GW, American are all significantly more marketable degrees in this area.

49,000 per year for a tiny school that is not IVY caliber (unlike Williams) that most people never heard. Bad ROI

Guys, Haverford is TINY - less than 1,200 students. That's smaller than most high schools around here. That's part of its appeal. USNews ranks it above Wesleyan, Colby and Colgate.

Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean the recruitment departments of major companies haven't. It's an excellent, if tiny, school.

I love how you have decided it's not a good ROI without ever having heard of the school. Well researched, my friend.
