Colleges your child crossed off the list after visiting, schools that moved up on the list. Why?

given our milieu, the wesleyan was a school with which we were familiar for years and for whom we never missed a chance to make a crack or generally crap on it, but when the kid actually did the things at the schools, wes was the school they wanted to go to more than any of the ‘other’ ‘better’ and/or ‘different’ schools that were not the wesleyan.
whoops.
weird that you didn’t hear a ton about science and math stuff at the wesleyan since it’s so much of a science and math titan, what with funding and programs not found at liberal arts colleges.
wes does have a ton of folks who never cross the road to the science side, but for the ones who do, hoo boy it’s a cornucopia of stemmy goodness.
research, prizes, classes, the wesleyan has them all.
plus a world famous film school for when you decide molecular biophysics and mathematics are not really what you wanted to study anyway…
and the wes folks love the middletown now, so there’s that.
