Knox vs. Oberlin?

<p>I've narrowed it down to Oberlin and Knox--my main reason for applying to both of them is their creative programs. Does anyone know which college/program is stronger?</p>

<p>I would say Oberlin is stronger in every respect. Go with Oberlin, you won’t be disappointed =]</p>

<p>That’s quite a recommendation! What’s your connection with Oberlin? And how much do you know about Knox?</p>

<p>I am a student who visited and interviewed at both schools. I ended up not applying to Oberlin, but I will not be attending Knox. Knox does have a very good writing program, but Oberlin’s is stronger.</p>

<p>I would only choose Knox over Oberlin if finances are an issue.</p>

<p>Overall, the students at Oberlin take academics more serious, and I think you’d be selling your academic experience short with Knox.</p>

<p>I have to ask - where did you end up?</p>

<p>I’ll be attending Kenyon.</p>

<p>Just to clarify, I think Knox is an excellent school, probably in the top decile of all colleges in the USA. For a very long time Knox was at the top my college list, but that was before Kenyon stole my heart :)</p>
