<p>Hi everyone! I have been doing a really intense college search as I will be a senior in a week.
I came across a new name the other day, Sarah Lawrence. I visited the campus and attended the info session and tour. It seemed pretty cool,but also very artsy. It seemed like the school and their prospective student were interested in "art" only. However, it sounds like they have a good science program and they have a good amount of student attend medical school from there.</p>
<p>Is this a highly respected school? Any opinions? Please help!</p>
<p>SLC is a high-quality, small liberal arts college, close to NYC. </p>
<p>***** just named it one of the top ten “best kept secret” schools</p>

<p>Also, top-ten “brainiest” (whatever that means…)</p>

<p>While its strong in arts and there are a lot of artists (and even more writers) on campus, it has a pretty standard liberal arts college mix, including sciences, although again, everything is small. Also, most unstructured curriculum. No grad student teachers or huge lecture/recitation sctions in the Sciences. Getting so much so much one-to-one attention from science faculty can help with grad/med school reccomendations, but you have to balance that against no big labs with lots of reserach options.</p>
<p>If you like smallness and lack of structure, its a good place.</p>
<p>**** is “you-ni-go” (sound it out!) I don’t know why CC does this!!!</p>
