<p>Time is running out...and a decision MUST be made. S is very torn between the strengths of Lehigh and the strengths of Lafayette. Very different ...yet many applicants apply to both. Can you give some insites to "why Lehigh"....we have been to the college many time and know first hand that it is a beautiful campus. Are you happy with the professors and are the students friendly ? Does the campus pull together....or is everyone insulated in their own group? S is looking towards the computer science field....strong at Lehigh? Thanks</p>
<p>This is old (2002) but, mine was turned off by Lafayette's info session where more mention was made of all the DI sports teams than academic strengths. Ended up at Lehigh. Has had good and bad professors, made some nice friends, did not go Greek.</p>
<p>I had to make the very same decision this year, and chose lehigh over a scholarship at Lafayette... I just found that the student body at Lehigh was more welcoming, the energy of the campus was more spirited, the professors were MUCH more interesting and engaged, and the opportunities available seem much more abundant... I'm not planning to go anywhere near a computer science major, but if you have any specific questions, fell free to pm me</p>
<p>Thanks for your insight. We were not at all impressed with the Lafayette Accepted Students Day. At Lehigh, we had breakfast with the president at his home. Many professors were on hand to make us feel welcomed! It was a nice touch. The campus was alive w/ students and so beautiful. Of course..it helped that we visited Lehigh on a picture perfect day. The weather during our Lafayette visit was rainy and yuck.</p>
<p>MKW, check your PM.</p>
<p>what about engineering? I am deciding which to apply ED...</p>
