I am thinking about applying to Bryn Mawr but want to make sure it will be possible to meet guys I find attractive. The Insider’s Guide to Colleges (put out by Yale students) says that “Bryn Mawr students are fond of saying that the stereotypical Haverfordian is “short, hairy, Jewish and named Dan” and while that characterization is far from universally true, 'Fordians cheerfully acknowledge that “the typical Haverford student is nerdier than average and fairly awkward.”” I don’t know how correct this view is, and I wanted to check with you because my preference is more for tall, unhairy and athletic.

Also, with the interactions between the bi colleges, do you get to meet many Haverford guys at parties, dances,lectures, etc.?

Thanks!
