What are some PREPPY, POSH, small colleges

Re #35

The previous comment was about non black students avoiding historically black schools, not black students considering them.

I wouldnā€™t exactly call Hampden-Sydney posh and preppy. My nephew went there. Itā€™s very southernā€“I guess Iā€™d describe it as southern social, perhapsā€“a lot of young men who like to hunt, for example. Academics are OK. You do know that itā€™s all male, correct?

Yes I know itā€™s all-male. What about Gettysburg?

@ucbalumnus actually it was about both.

ā€œPeople can go to historically black colleges too, right? Thereā€™s even a list of Top 25 Colleges for Black Students. Also in the news is the first accredited Muslim college.ā€

It was comparing the two of them, which is what I was responding to, because I donā€™t think they are at all comparable.

Kdkhan, Gettysburg is a coeducational college.

I donā€™t think heā€™s look specifically for all-male schools.

Check out Denison college.

Iā€™m gonna second that thereā€™s a distinction between black people attending HBCUs, and a white person looking for a school low in diversity.

What are your stats so people can suggest accurate schools?

From personal knowledge URichmond and Washington and Lee may fit what youā€™re looking for.

Roger Williams if youā€™re into sailing

Claremont McKenna might fit that (but it has diversity)

St Lawrence, Hobart&William Smith, Trinity University

Would High Point be a good fit?(friends of mine call it High Point Country Club)
Here are my stats
GPA- 3.5
SAT
CR- 800
W- 800
M- 500
Total- 2100

Claremont-McKenna has an elite student body, but Iā€™m not sure it has the sort of environment the OP seeks. Sewanee might be perfect, given his obvious disposition toward Language and Humanities. Davidson should be an excellent fit, also.

@Kdkhan If you are are considering schools in the South, Elon offers more of what youā€™re looking for than High Point doesā€“and Sewanee offers more than either High Point or Elon. Davidson might by ā€œpreppy,ā€ but it is also more intellectually rigorous and much harder to get into that the other three schools Iā€™ve mentioned here.

Believe you can bring horse(s) to Skidmore but you should double check
