<p>If you loved Earlham, Guilford and Hendrix are your best bets. </p>
<p>Many other good schools listed (Eckerd, Colorado College, Dickinson, F&M and Gettysburg, Centre, Dennison, Wooster), but I wouldn't say that any of them has an Earlham "feel." </p>
<p>If you're looking for an Oberlin "feel" w/ less competitive admissions, then Bard is an excellent choice; Hamp and Sarah Lawrence ok (but a bit farther "out there").</p>
<p>If she's willing to look further East, Bates might be worth throwing into the mix, too. Current president came from Haverford, a Quaker school, and there's a long history of egalitarianism (one of the early schools to go co-ed; never had frats, etc.). It's somewhat artsy, and quirky (not quite to the extent of my impression of Earlham, Hampshire, Bard and company, though) and strong in bio. In addition it's SAT-optional, which is perfect of you D's profile.</p>
<p>If she would consider Hampshire, Bard or Sarah Lawrence, she might also be interested in Bennington.</p>
<p>Don't know if you can still apply, but try St. Mary's College in Maryland. Strong in biology, intellectually vibrant campus, though it is a bit isolated.</p>
<p>Sarah Lawrence is crazy, from what I've heard online and from a girl who has a friend who goes there. Unless your daughter is gay or really likes hanging around gay people, she may feel extremely out of place as they are very 'out' there. (Think annual Drag Queen festivals, etc).</p>
<p>Got those drag shows here at Hendrix too.... "Miss Hendrix". Though, it kinda is for charity.</p>
<p>Taking about the Door County Lawrence University retreat: son stayed two weekends there during his freshman year and three this year for various studies and reasons. It is part of the student experience.</p>
<p>We have time to visit 2 schools and need to decide which ones. We have already visited Beloit and son loved the school but not the town. We need a school that may give good merit $$$ for solid B (unweighted) in mostly honors/AP, great ec's, work and volunteer, and SAT probably over 2000. Interests in anthropology and plant biology; he is a very artsy, music, reading, ultimate frisbee kind of kid. What do you think: Earlham (do they give merit $$?), Knox, Kalamazoo, Grinnell or other? Thanks!!!</p>

I'm going to say what I've said on other threads: everyone who goes to visit likes the school but HATES the town. The location seriously turns a lot of people away. </p>
<p>OP: try this list for more Quaker institutions Quaker-originated</a> Colleges and Universities .</p>
