Colby Vs. Notre Dame Vs Trinity University Vs Siena College Vs U. of Richmond????

<p>Hi, I am an international student. I applied to this schools and already got into some of them and I think I have pretty good chances at the other ones. I am majoring in Biology and doing Pre-Med. I have researched this schools and I am finding it difficult to choose one.
Can anybody who attends this schools, knows them, or has any kind of experience with them tell me about them and what is their opinion?
I live really far away from all of them so it will be far to visit them.
Thanks a lot!</p>

<p>I wouldn't go to Notre Dame if you aren't that religious. They were #1 on the Alternative Lifestyles Not an Alternative list and #2 on the Most Religious Students list on Princeton Review</p>

<p>My cousin attends Sienna. It's probably the worst college out of all those (except for Trinity, because I do not know anything about TU, so I can't judge). However, I believe Sienna has an accellerated program for medical school with a near-by university.</p>

<p>Both Notre Dame and URichmond are known for not being that "diverse", however, I hear that URichmond is very warm to internationals. Don't know about the rest. Good luck!</p>

<p>You have a wide range there! I'll give it a go, though I am really only familiar w/2.</p>

I have heard many different things about all of this schools..
Can you tell me what are this schools known as? What is their reputation?
If anybody knows how good are they for Pre Med that would also be great!
Thanks</p>
