This won’t be very helpful, but I’d say:

Amherst, Colby or UChicago, in that order. The five-school consortium is super cool, and Amherst (town) >>>> Waterville. Maine is stellar, and I really, really, really loved being there, though. So, I suppose Maine >>>> Mass. Basically, I love Colby, but Amherst is dope.

Congratulations; you absolutely cannot go wrong!

Again, this post should really not be helpful in any way. It’s important to chose a school that matches your personality, especially since all of your choices offer phenomenal educations. What field of study are you interested in? Some of these schools really excel in specific areas (though every aspect of education at each of these schools is bound to be at least on-par/average or better).

Caveat: For environmental studies/sciences, Colby may be the strongest. Colby also has STELLAR government and economics programs, but I believe Amherst and UChicago do as well.
