<p>Daughter got accepted at all 3 last year chose Dartmouth. There are a lot of overlaps between the 3 schools. She like the fact that Dartmouth is a little bigger and has a better sense of community. There are also numerous threads on this topic</p>
<p>Dartmouth is the only one I applied to...ergo....Dartmouth.</p>
<p>I don't know what about Williams and Amhurst turned me off...but I didn't end up applying so...</p>
<p>Didn't apply to Williams, Swarthmore, or Amherst.....my one regret throughout all this college business. :(</p>
<p>Appled to both Dartmouth and Amherst got accepted to both also, for me they're really similar, but right now Dartmouth has the edge for me. The only real standout difference for me is the size issue, pretty much .</p>
<p>jblackboy, </p>
<p>what about the happiness issue?</p>
<p>I personally think I'll be happier at Dartmouth, and it seems that students at Dartmouth are happier than the ones at Amherst</p>
<p>jblackboy,</p>
<p>you got that right. just take a look at the amherst forum--a lot of take-it or leave-it acceptances.</p>
<p>I'm willing to bet we'll be classmates next year!</p>
<p>hey jblackboy05 , are you still thinking of going to Amhert's special open house thing?</p>
