@runnergirl31 As it relates to all women’s colleges, I think my daughter felt that both Mount Holyoke and Bryn Mawr were sort of the best of both worlds. In other words, they are all female, rigorous/serious academics and part of a college consortium that would allow her to attend classes at other co-ed colleges. In both cases, her major would require her to attend classes at other schools in the consortium and she also plays an instrument so would potentially be in a joint college ensemble. These campuses are absolutely beautiful and the long rich history of traditions seemed to make them really desirable to her. She is the same age as you, very similar stats, very athletic etc so it might be something that you find interesting, but definitely research it because it surely isn’t for everyone. With all that said she has decided that she’d prefer to go to an urban school so her top choices have shifted over the year. We both agree that Bryn Mawr is probably the prettiest campus we visited (and we visited 16 and counting haha).
