Campus Visit Notes for Swarthmore College


Visit Description:

This was my second visit to Swarthmore (I had informally walked around the campus the previous year when I had been in the area). I visited three other schools during this college trip and Swarthmore stood out the most. The people were probably the nicest out of the four schools and the facilities were stunning. The school stood out enough that I now plan to return next year to interview and meet with biology professors (my intended major), to date no other school has stood out as much.
