Colleges Vibe Similar to Beloit and Agnes Scott

Sorry for the slow response, I was out of town and not looking at CC. Re our visit to Agnes Scott, we did like it. Beautiful campus and it felt very supportive and very diverse.

Has she looked at Hollins in Roanoke VA? It is a women’s college also, but transitioning to be a non-CIS male college. My D22 has a friend who goes there and she has lots of friends who ID as non-binary, etc.

My D22 goes to Warren Wilson just outside of Asheville. Did you look there when you were at UNC-A? So far it’s been a good fit for my D22 and is just 15 minutes into Asheville with all the boutiques you could want. If she doesn’t drive there is always a friend with a car. My D22 drives lots of her friends into town. Very LGBTQ+ friendly. No Greek life at all. There is some partying, but it’s a very accepting school and they do have a Wellness dorm that is substance free if she wants to ensure she’s not around anything. They have some good scholarships as well.

Your kid should definitely get in Agnes Scott with that GPA and scores. My D22 got in there and got merit with lesser scores.
