Bates vs Davidson

[broadwaybaby16]

About a month ago I was admitted to both Davidson and Bates as well as a few other schools. I didn’t really have a preference between the two schools but I figured I would “feel” which school was right for me when I went to the visit back days… this wasn’t the case. I really liked both schools. Every time I try to make a pro’s and con’s list I will end up balancing things out. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or knew some really great bonuses from either school. I honestly just need help at this point. I know Davidson has a better town (I actually lived in Davidson for 10 years) so I don’t know if I want to be where I grew up. I am not super interested in sports and I am interested in musical theatre although it’s not something I plan on pursuing as a career. I don’t know what I am interested in academically yet. I have never really lived in a snowy place so I don’t know how I would do in the winter. What differentiates these two schools from one another? I have to decide by May 1st and my brain is freaking out. Help!
