Hi everyone. I am currently a junior in high school, and I would say that Dickinson is currently my first choice school. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on the school, socially and academically, and if anyone had any positive experiences there?
Thanks
Read the “Will I be happy at Dickinson” thread. Good info from current students and parents of them. We visited and thought it seemed very friendly and down to earth. They have very good visit options aimed at helping prospective students get a “true” view, so I’d strongly recommend that you check it out in person if you can.
Ok. Thanks!
@h012345 my D just visited Dickinson on Friday as an accepted student. She had a great day and really thought people were very friendly. She sat in on a class with about ten kids and the prof and thoroughly enjoyed it. She liked the food in the cafeteria. The town of Carlisle is lovely with lots of restaurants and shops, and it isn’t difficult to get to Philadelphia on the train. I am thinking she might end up at Dickinson, it is a great school.
