Haverford and Bryn Mawr are right next to each other about 20 minutes right up I476 from Swarthmore. Both are quite similar to Swarthmore in major respects.

UPenn is an urban campus about 25 minutes from Swarthmore, either by car or by communter train connecting stations on both campuses.

Princeton is maybe 45 minutes to an hour from Swarthmore, either by train or car.

You can get to NYC, Baltimore, or DC by train in under two hours. So, if any schools in those areas interest you, they would be very easy to add to the itinerary. If you are driving, you might want to consider Vassar. It’s probably a two to three hour drive from Swarthmore (depending on traffic). Vassar is a pretty popular choice on lists with Swarthmore. Similar in some ways although Vassar is a bit bigger.
