Connecticut college doesn’t have Greek life
To the posters simply offering criticism and not suggestions, this list and others posted these are simply starting ideas for OP and her son to check out, not carved in stone lists of where her son will apply - she and her son can start to read up on these colleges and visit and he will see what he likes. Many of the colleges named have the vibe that Op’s son likes even if it doesn’t check every box she named (Wake Forest is a good example of that).
Great, so suggest a pile of them that don’t meet the basic requirement. 10-4. OP, give Hamburger University a try. No greek and no prep, unless you count the tzaziki burger and chopping lettuce.
That’s ridiculous. As the parent of two kids who attend/ed LACs, there are a lot of overlapping applications from this list and the other posted.

It’s not criticism. It’s correction. Why offer up schools that don’t have what OP is looking for?

OP, seriously, are you unable to google? Just pull up a list of top SLACs, and start there. My DS is looking at all the NESCAC schools, but he could care less about frats and partying. You can still take a look at them.
Amherst College
Bates College
Bowdoin College
Colby College
Connecticut College
Hamilton College
Middlebury College
Trinity College
Tufts University
Wesleyan University
Williams College
You’re lecturing the OP but you’re ignoring OP’s requirements. Can’t you read? Preppy and Greek, not the NESCAC’s.
Also she said 4.0, not higher. Williams and some of the others are looking for GPAs above 4.0, national recognitions, 32-36 ACTs, etc.

You are a terrible person.
I’m not the one who wants to consort with other alcoholic date rapists.
You should write for Rolling Stone. They're desperate for this sort of insight.
