<p>Any info would be appreciated. Son is a fairly conservative, religious evangelical Protestant) Junior in HS, interested in medicine. Would not like to feel “lost” in a really large school. PSAT of 209, top 4% of class. Please Advise!</p>
<p>hmm…with those stats he’s certainly in</p>
<p>I think that Grove City is well worth consideration. It has excellent academics (my son is graduating this spring, and he has been accepted at Stanford and MIT [among others] for graduate study in engineering). The Christian environment is not just propaganda for parents–it is very real. However, the school is not legalistic in its approach to rules, at least not that I have observed. The campus is beautiful and enhances the learning process. The students and the faculty really make it their aim to take care of the facilities. A new apartment complex for upperclassmen will be ready this fall, and it is beautiful. The faculty are completely dedicated to undergraduate teaching. They will mentor your son. The pre-med program is excellent.</p>
<p>All of this comes at the price of most in-state public universities.</p>
<p>Interviewing at the school is a very important factor in the admission process at GCC. If you plan a visit, I would encourage you to have your son interview.</p>
