Not currently a student, but I have spent a lot of time researching haverford and spent a few days there on a fly-in. While it does seem odd for studying abroad, haverford has excellent academics and is a great school. On the social end, some students are very active. There are parties on the weekends and plenty of things to do until about 3 am. It’s also super easy to go to philly, and there is a solid mix of students who like to go downtown a few times a month and those who prefer to stay in, don’t go. It’s a very chill vibe with a lot of trust and honesty among students and faculty. There are a lot of resources because of the Quaker consortium with bryn mawr, swarthmore, and penn. It’ll be easy for your student to be enriched academically while getting to explore New England bc they can travel among the different cities on weekends if they make it work. Hope this helps! (Any current students can correct me if I’m wrong)
