Clark has been mentioned a few times on this thread.
My S24 was at admitted students day a few weeks back. They gave him a tremendous merit package ($30k) and brought the cost way down. He absolutely loved the professors and feel. But he wanted a larger school (his High School has more students than Clark has undergrads). He was offered honors (it’s brand new). And they also have the 4+1 program with a free 5th year in about 10 programs (half off the others). The area right around the school is quiet - and a little ugly - aside from fast food but Worcester has several walkable areas a bus ride away downtown with restaurants, etc. just over an hour or so from Boston. Check it out.
