Where to go...? College selection...

<p>I got into these colleges. I would really appreciate any opinions on where to go! I like them all, although the idea of going to a women's college is particularly appealing. How does Mount Holyoke stack up compared to the others? Is it prestigious enough? Although money is a factor, I'm looking more for opinions based on non-financial impressions of these colleges.</p>

<p>Mount Holyoke College (recipient of the 21st Century Scholarship 25,000 a year plus funding for summer internship/research)
NYU (College of Arts and Science)
Colgate University
Boston College (Honors Program Arts and Science)
Boston University (Kilachand Honors College, which I do really like)
Fordham University (Dean's Scholarship, 10,000 a year)
Bard College
University of Hartford (full scholarship, Honors Program, but I really don't particularly like the place) </p>

<p>The higher ranked schools are NYU and BC. While Mount Holyoke is part of the “Seven Sisters” the ranking has come down some. However, it is beautiful and the 5 colleges area enables you to take classes at other area schools. If you are looking to major in business then yes, NYU or BC would be the best if money is not a deciding factor. However, if you like NYU, BU from a city perspective would be more appealing than BC. </p>
