Nontraditional colleges?

i'm looking for nontraditional Liberal Arts colleges like Hampshire or Swarthmore (but preferably a little more laid-back) on the East Coast. Ones that have a lot of flexibility in curriculum and that are just really different.
I have a weighted 4.7 GPA and my SATs are a 620 math, 670 reading and a 680 writing.
Any suggestions?

Swarthmore isn't nontraditional.

In the vein of Hampshire look at Bennington and Sarah Lawrence.

Smith has a totally flexible curriculum. Marlboro is another good one.
