Schools similar to Muhlenberg College?

<p>Hi! My sister is searching for colleges, and we really like the strong community feel and strong academics of Muhlenberg. What are other schools that are similar to this?</p>

<p>Lafayette College, if you’re looking in that area. </p>

<p>I ended up going to Moravian, and that was a very nice school as well.</p>

<p>There are many other liberal arts colleges, with similar admission profiles, in PA and neighboring states. These include Juniata, Ursinus, Gettysburg, Dickinson, Goucher, St. Mary’s College of Md, Skidmore, and Hobart. Somewhat more selective schools include Connecticut College, Bard, Hamilton, and Union. Edgier, more counter-cultural LACs in the region include Eugene Lang, Sara Lawrence, Bennington, and Hampshire. </p>

<p>All of these schools, and others, could be considered similar to Muhlenberg with respect to academic strength and (perhaps with the exception of Eugene Lang) community feel. Nationwide, there are about 150-200 liberal arts colleges. Check out the ones ranked around the 50-100 range (or a little lower, a little higher) by US News ([Muhlenberg</a> College | Best College | US News](<a href=“http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/muhlenberg-college-3304]Muhlenberg”>http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/muhlenberg-college-3304)).
