Grinnell is ranked very high, I beleive 15th overall for LAC’s. I don’t personally care about rankings though. It’s a very academic school and has an incredible reputation. It’s cold there, but the kids who go can’t say enough good things about it. It has a very diverse campus and takes about 12% international students. They have one of the largest endowments around and it shows. The campus is amazing with top notch facilities. It’s a small school in an isolated area, but that is what makes it so wonderful. The students are very close knit and the school spends incredible amounts of money bringing in entertainment. Everything is free to the students so you don’t need a lot of money. I could go on and on. Where are you from? You really need to visit them to get a clearer picture of the differences as they are vast. Please let me know if you have any questions about Grinnell.
