<p>I'm trying to solidify my college list...so far I have like 12 schools which is way too many. I'm not at all sure about these three. Does anyone know anything about them? I heard Bowdoin is very 'outdoorsy' people like to hike/ski/ camp. This is definitely not my cup of tea, but I really like the academics there and I'm a legacy. I also love the academics at Carleton (very intellectual) but I'm not sure about what kind of student it attracts. Are the kids really artsy? Or are they preppy? Same questions about Vassar. Any suggestions would help!</p>
<p>My other schools are:
Wellesley
Middlebury
Swarthmore
Amherst
Haverford
Bryn Mawr
Grinnell???
University of Chicago???</p>
