Looking for anecdotes/stories/experiences/etc about these schools

<p>We know graduates of Wellesley, NYU, Carnegie Mellon, Mt. Holyoke, and USC. ALL really loved their colleges but for different reasons…as the schools are not exactly the same! </p>

<p>To be honest, I think you need to look at the locations of these schools and make some decisions. ALL of them are good schools academically, so you may want to consider urban/suburban/rural, warm weather/cold weather, west coast/not west coast. </p>

<p>If I were a female student and I was interested in an all women’s college, I would choose Wellesley off of your list. BUT then if I preferred a more secluded place, I would choose Mt. Holyoke.</p>
