<p>What did you consider to be similar to Vassar?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Well, I also applied to Amherst College, Swarthmore College, Haverford College, the University of Pennsylvania, Franklin & Marshall College, and Ursinus College... however, I wouldn't necessary say they are all similar to Vassar. I'd say the schools that most closely resemble VC would be: Reed College, Wesleyan University, Swarthmore College, Skidmore College, Bard College, Hamilton College, Oberlin College, Brown University, and Kenyon College.</p>
<p>Also, here's a list of the 20 schools that most commonly overlapped with Vassar in admissions for CC members (numbers were taken from Stats Profile Section of the CC site for the classes of 2011 and 2012):</p>
