If someone is worried about not getting accepted at Swarthmore, I’m not sure that applying to Stanford should give them much additional piece of mind!

There are, however, quite a few liberal arts colleges that offer a similar academic experience – many of which are better admissions “bargains”. One is right up the road in Bryn Mawr. Smith would be a terrific alternative as well – very academically oriented place. Several of the midwestern LACs also fit the category – Oberlin, Grinnell, Earlham, St. Olaf, etc.
