I chose Swarthmore over ...

<p>Now that decisions are in, I would be curious to learn of the other schools in the decision set of those who have elected to attend Swarthmore.</p>

<p>Conversely, if you did not chose Swarthmore, where are you going in the fall?</p>

<p>I chose Swarthmore over Amherst and Williams.</p>

<p>I chose Swarthmore over the University of Chicago, Carleton, and Reed.</p>

<p>I chose Swarthmore over Cornell and Georgetown. Almost went to Cornell!</p>

<p>Pomona, Harvey Mudd, UC Berkeley, Williams</p>

<p>D2 declined Swarthmore and will be attending CMU.</p>

<p>I'M GOING TO SWARTHMORE!!!!!</p>

<p>i turned down upenn, brown, williams, northwestern, and smith :).</p>

<p>SEE YOU GUYS NEXT YEAR!!!!</p>

<p>Turned down Carleton, Wesleyan, Pomona, U Chicago, Reed, Haverford, and American University.</p>

<p>trees:</p>

<p>Glad to hear you made up your mind!</p>

<p>You have a somewhat unique perspective. I'm sure that the overall concept of Swarthmore is pretty familiar to you, but the details and trappings are so different than your surroundings.</p>

<p>As far as I can tell, all of my daughter's Swarthmore friends from California (inc. almost all of her roommates/housing block friends over the years) have really enjoyed their four years there. As far as I can tell, they are mostly all planning to stay on the East Coast, at least for the foreseeable future.</p>

<p>I guess the lure of indian (or southeast asian) food wasn't enough.</p>

<p>Hahaha.</p>

<p>I couldn't be happier, to be honest.</p>

<p>if you're happy, we're all happy. i also like the food at sharples.</p>

<p>i'm a transfer, but I chose Swat over:
my current school (Penn State - Schreyer Honors College)
Smith
Bryn Mawr
Wesleyan
Wellesley</p>

<p>...actually I haven't heard from Bryn Mawr yet but whether or not they accept me I'm going to Swat :)</p>

<p>wait! let me retract something: I was rejected by Wellesley. (their loss, bah)
I wasn't thinking when I wrote that.
(I didn't really want to go to Wellesley...it just struck me as kind of bland after a while. And I was scared by reports of high depression rates there...so my essays and Why Wellesley especially kind of sucked...and I wasn't distraught by the rejection.)</p>
