I have been admitted to Bates and am trying to decide if I should go here. Right now I am in between Bates and a big school of about 30,00 students. So I’m all over the place. I was wondering if anyone can share with me why the ultimately chose Bates and what the benefits are over a bigger school? Also I visited and spent some time in Lewiston and was not the biggest fan. I felt like Bates was surrounded by the town. I love to run and I want to be able to walk out of the dorm and find a trail. When I saw the school it did not seem like they had that? Can anyone touch on the trail aspect or running community? Anything helps! Thanks!
