If you are looking for a close-knit intellectual community at Stanford, you should look into SLE. It is not “competitive” (pretty much anyone who applies gets in), and it’s not for everyone. But it is, I think, as close to Swarthmore as you can get at Stanford.
So you picked Stanford after all? Btw, if you want FroSoCo, you can apply for it when you fill out your housing preferences (it requires additional application, but anyone can apply. The main advantage of FroSoCo is that you don’t go to housing lottery your sophomore year. I am not so sure about that dorm being any more intellectual though…)
