mom in va said "I'm not sure about why Harvey Mudd didn't make his list. I think it's party that they don't have grad programs in CompSci and maybe because it's considered more liberal art-ish in which case he can be here at UVA (if he gets in). "

I confess that I haven't read the entire thread and someone else may have already said this but Harvey Mudd is hard core science/math. Yes they require their grads to take a broad range of classes but my goodness if you look at the core science and math requirements it makes your head spin. I would encourage him to visit and talk with someone there. If he isn't interested after the visit so be it but it absolutely a fabulous school and being a part of the consortium gives it that much more of a shine.
