I have just about 6 days to decide where I am going to be attending, and to be quite honest, I’m completely stuck! These schools have all had their impressive elements. At Gettysburg I got the highest scholarship, the Abraham Lincoln Scholarship, while at Bucknell and F&M I received state grants (Bucknell is just plain expensive and F&M doesn’t do merit). Gettysburg definitely feels homey and quaint - everyone genuinely seemed happy! Bucknell has a very similar feel, however I have heard that greek life dominates the social scene, which is not my cup of tea. F&M is smaller but has a great location in Lancaster with many opportunities! As a prospective Biology/Biochemistry major (I am also interested in art, psychology, and medicine), which college has the best program? I am also looking for a tight-knit community with great professor relationships and a bustling campus. Let me know your thoughts/personal experiences - it is GREATLY appreciated!!
