<p>Hi, I'm a high school junior, soon-2-be senior.</p>
<p>And I have a discussion question for everyone. Personally, one of the major deciding factors for me when I choose where I want to go to college is singing groups. Currently, I sing in my school's, Chorus, Choir, and A Cappella groups. I want to continue that in college, so I wanted to know which schools (besides the well-known Yale) have a rep for college a cappella. Discuss. Thanks.</p>
<p>Think any northeastern liberal arts college. Williams, especially. Although I really like the names of the groups at MIT - the Logarhythms and the Chorallaries.</p>
<p>Trinity has lots of singing groups...</p>
<p>I think every college in the country has a cappella groups.
I've heard good ones from Kenyon, Macalester, Carleton and St. Olaf.</p>
<p>And here's a useful page:

<p>A capella groups are the most ubiquitous clubs of any sort to be found at a college. Even the tiny tech schools have them. Don't worry. And if you end up in a lesser one that just means you could be doing a lot more solos. The more well-known ones will just be more cut-throat, and singing shouldn't be competitive like that.</p>
<p>Tufts Bealzebubs, Trinity Pipes, Williams e-phlats, Georgetown Chimes, Dartmouth Aires, Princeton Nassoons, Princeton Tigertones, Harvard Krockodilloes, Brown Hi-Jinks, Wheaton Gentlemen Callers, Bowdoin Meddiebumpsters, etc.......they are everywhere....</p>
<p>I understand that Wesleyan has a large number of high quality touring a capella groups.</p>
<p>William and Mary, a capella groups EVERYWHERE!</p>
<p>On the Johns Hopkins campus day I heard the JHU Octopodes. They were pretty good.</p>

<p>Penn has one of the top a cappella groups and I can verify that because I have seen them perform.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, A Cappellas are a huge scene on the JHU campus (single sex and coed groups) and the Octopodes recieved 1st place at The International Championship of Collegiate A Capella in 2004.</p>
