<p>I start college in the Fall; I'm unsure about the topics/rumors of Sweet Briar. I went on a tour, everyone seemed nice, friendly etc. However, is that what it's REALLY like? I don't want to go to a college where it's fake i.e. the friendliness factor. I just want to know what it's REALLY like there, is it a great place or is it like High School (selfish, backstabbing, after MRS. degree, egocentric) bunch of girls? Is it as easy to make friends, join clubs etc. and as welcoming as it seems?</p>

<p>I think this is the place for me, but I want to be sure I'm not going into a hormonal pit of doom where I will likely transfer. I want to know the truth, the ugly facts and all.</p>

<p>I'm really nice, yet tend to be somewhat shy, but I am a very determined, intelligent girl. I want to achieve great things and I am all about nature and hard work. </p>

<p>Can anybody about there tell me the truth?</p>

<p>The Sweet Briar forum hasn’t been very active lately. Here is one relatively recent thread that might answer some of your questions. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sweet-briar-college/851215-reviews-sweet-briar.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sweet-briar-college/851215-reviews-sweet-briar.html&lt;/a&gt; You could contact Psypomp for more information.</p>

<p>I was going to suggest that you should check the Women’s Colleges Forum, but I see you’ve posted this same question there.</p>

<p>I’ve had the pleasure of knowing several Sweet Briar graduates over the years, and all of them were charming, intelligent women. I expect that your experience at SBC will be mostly up to you. If you seek out and befriend good tempered people, you will avoid the drama that you fear, and you will have a successful college experience.</p>

<p>Wishing you all the best!</p>
