But if you feel as though Oberlin or Grinnell are ‘better’ schools anyways, then why be so upset about your package at Knox?



I really did love Knox and was considering going there instead of all of my other schools. I put “better” in quotes because those other schools are more well known in terms of LACs, but I didn’t necessarily consider these schools actually better. I’ve never been big on prestige or rankings. I liked Knox a lot, but I unfortunately did not have any money to visit and they didn’t offer to fly me down like the other schools did. I still think Knox is a wonderful institution, but my financial situation (in more ways than one) prevented me from deciding on Knox. Hopefully I’ll be happy and successful at Wellesley next year.
