I’m a So Cal native and have lived on the East coat for nearly two decades. I think between SCU, USD, and Pepperdine, SCU seems to be the most up and coming. Those campuses are all gorgeous, but it’s a good idea to think beyond that.
I am wondering why the Claremont Consortium. It’s not particularly religious and is overall petty liberal.Has she considered other Jesuit schools where she would get good merit? What about Gonzaga? That’s a gorgeous campus with a ton of school spirit, lovely campus, and fairly balanced ratio of men to women.
Understand that your daughter may not come back to the East Coast after college. All of her choices are reputable.
