<p>what would you say are some east coast schools equivelant to Lewis and Clark or Whitman College? I really like many aspects of these schools minus their west coast locations</p>
<p>anyone??..plz…</p>
<p>what do you like about them?</p>
<p>-size
-popular majors
-LAC
-liberal stance
-nice surroundings
-pretty campus
-admissions selectivity
-etc.</p>
<p>im just curious as to what are some east coast schools with similar qualities to these schools as well as a similar selectivity</p>
<p>Perhaps Goucher?</p>
<p>Whitman College and Williams College have a number of characteristics in common. Both are small LACS, with superb academics, pretty campuses, excellent regional reputations, and campuses that are in smaller towns–hence more of a sense of community for students.</p>
<p>Lewis and Clark is in Portland and, I believe, some of the students are commuters. Years ago, it had much less sense of community. Not sure where that stands now.</p>
<p>Try: Hamilton, Bates,Colby, Clark. Williams is at least a level more selective that Whitman, whereas I think the others listed here are more in the same ball park.</p>
<p>Although in the midwest, Kenyon and Grinnell seem similar to Whitman. (Oberlin may have some similar characteristics as well.)</p>
<p>Bates, Conn College, Skidmore, Vassar</p>
