wow they were really generous with financial aid, i never thought bryn mawr was that good with it minus loans. im a math major a bryn mawr, so im in the science and math building a lot. i dont know how large the computer science department is, but it seems like they do really interesting things and the faculty is very accessible. recently they were doing a project called beowolf or something…haha honestly i didnt pay much attention cause im not a computer person, but it was a huge event where they ordered pizza for everyone and worked together on some “super computer” or something like that…maybe you can find information about it on the bryn mawr site.

on the other hand, ive never heard of a pre-architecture major here at bryn mawr. im not even sure if we offer any classes in it, though im sure uve reseached that all already.

im not that familiar with middlebury, so i cant say much on the comparison. bryn mawr is a really good school, but ranking-wise it is below middlebury, so if ure into that that answers ur question about “whats better”. however, i think bryn mawr is underrated (of course, i am a student ) the work here is very difficult, the knowledge u gain is tremendous, and it has very unique qualities that you wont find at almost any other colleges, such as the tradtions and closeness of the whole community. i dont think it would be unwise to go to middlebury cause its an excellent school…i guess it depends on your financial situation. congrats on getting into bryn mawr though!
