<p>@intparent, which of the CTCL colleges did you visit that felt like a snooze? I visited a couple and several (Hillsdale, Rhodes, St. Olaf, etc) ended up on my final list-- one of them is currently my top choice. I was impressed by the academic rigor of the colleges when I visited. They compared very favorably with other top colleges we visited like Pomona, CMC, UChicago, Northwestern, etc. I also have good stats (4.0 uw, 2390, Subject Tests 800/780)</p>
<p>I would definitely recommend a look through the CTCL book. There might be a couple good fits in the list.</p>
