Smaller school with merit aid for Jewish girl B+/A- premed [really 3.95 unweighted HS GPA]

Mom of a Jewish student at St. Olaf here. While apparently not a fit for the OP, there is a small but active Jewish student union at St. Olaf. They have weekly Shabbat services, bi (CORRECTION TEICE) monthly havdalah, torah study and Hebrew as well as other social gatherings. There are a couple of rabbis on the faculty who facilitate and held a student led seder last week. Apparently the student who led it was raised conservative and did the whole Haggadah with lots of editorial in Hebrew (a new experience for my very very reformed son) They collaborate in some or all of these with Carton students too. Honestly, my son identifies as Jewish and participates in activities maybe more now than he did at home.
