Campus Visit Notes for Goucher College:
Visit Description:
Chose to look at Goucher for liberal arts program and dance minor. The school itself has a lot to offer, but it wasn't a good fit. Factors were the somewhat quirky student body, the higher than average tuition, and not enough suitable majors.
