Pitzer sounds like a great option. My mom’s friend’s son applied rather late to Pitzer after thinking that he wanted a small East Coast LAC. It has the other 4 colleges to balance the size and environment, but, I understand, has a more Wesleyan feel to it. They are less selective than Pomona, Mudd and CM so GPA may not be an issue. They have a social awareness focus. If you thought Wesleyan was a great fit, Davidson, Emory, Colgate and BU don’t sound like they would be as good a fit - very different vibe. If not actually Greek - a “Greek” feel.
