Brandeis, simply put, is an excellent school. Our family visited each of these schools an were totally blown away by our experience at Brandeis which, btw, is more of a suburban, as opposed to city, school. They’ve got a great faculty who are dedicated teachers in addition to their research. So it’s very similar to many LAC’s…Think Tufts. They don’t have the endowment of a Middlebury or a Colby an perhaps have less than glowing facilities, but that does not prevent one from receiving a a great education and leaving with great connections. Colby and Middlebury are isolated but similar in size and student body. Colby, actually, has some social overlap with it’s Maine neighbors, Bates, and Bowdoin. As many have said, congratulations on your acceptance to three exceptional schools…Good luck with your visits!!
