Yes, Dartmouth would be a fantastic choice as well. Just as slipper pointed out, the top schools (the ones that like I said above, have the most academic support spending per student - namely Swarthmore, Dartmouth, Yale, Caltech, Princeton) offer grants and attention to their students like you won’t find at a typical large undergrad program like Penn State or Berkeley. That gives those undergraduate students an ENORMOUS advantage when it comes to getting into the top graduate programs in anthropology. If you look at the composition of such programs, you’ll find that many of the students come from “top undergraduate programs” like the ones I listed a few posts above.
