Last spring during finals the Daily Beast listed Swat as the most grueling college in America - #1. So… pick your poison. Is it grueling or is it rigorous? Actually, for some unknown reason, that little gem from the Beasties made my Swat daughter feel better about her pending microbiology and biochemistry finals! As a Senior comparing notes about academic experiences with friends at other schools, she now realizes that she is bringing so much more to grad and professional school applications as a result of the gruel and/or rigor.
