Bryn Mawr or Barnard?

Thank you so much, englishivy for your input. I thought I was pretty set on Barnard too but after visiting Bryn Mawr, I realized that I did love how it was not in the city, but yet is still close enough.

The only thing I’m concerned about are internships and projects - being that Bryn Mawr isn’t located in the city, are internships still easily accessible? In addition to being able to work closely with a professor etc?

Also, are there nice tutoring services available and created for anyone that happens to be struggling with a specific academic subject?

I also felt that Bryn Mawr had a much bigger close-knit community feel, especially with the emphasis on traditions. Is it because of the Honor Code/self government or is it because of some other influences that make it so close-knit? Out of curiosity- What is your favorite tradition?
