This is the LAC version of its University sibling.
Obviously this is for the undergrad level. lol
Similar to the university counterpart, my rough, unscientific formula considers things like academic rep, class sizes/prof interaction (almost even in this case except for Williams with the tutorials and maybe other small differences), comprehensiveness of program offerings, stats/selectivity (forgot to mention that in other thread), and overall quality of experience according to what I’ve read on this site. Since these are all undergrad-first, I am not including the “undergraduate focus” metric from my university ranking.
Try not to take this too seriously, plop down your personal rankings here, and have some fun.
- Williams
- Amherst, Pomona, Swarthmore
- Bowdoin, Middlebury, Wellesley
- Carleton, Haverford
- Smith, Vassar, Wesleyan
- CMC, Colgate, Hamilton, Washington & Lee

That’s 40+ off the top of my head. There are many more awesome LACs…
