Tell me about Washington College please

My daughter is interested. We have visited a handful of SLACs in PA and MD so far, her favorite has been Hood College in Md. Washington looks similar size and the town looks quaint (she wants a cute town that is walkable from campus). There aren’t any recent threads on here about Washington, any updated input? Also, how is the school doing financially? Since she is focused on SLACs that is one of my main concerns. Thank you!

With respect to financial soundness, Forbes recently gave Washington College a B grade: Forbes 2024 Financial Grades - #4 by randommom1.

I believe @DPS43 and @vwlizard have some insights on Washington College. They might be able to help.

We know a current student that is very happy there.

I am probably late to the game here and you have picked a school! But if not, let me know what questions you have. Great school, great professors, plenty of on campus events to attend, great research grants, and super cute town (that shuts down pretty early, but super cute). Enough small weekend parties, but definitely a small school so not a “party school”. Campus is really pretty.
