I will push back on one thing that @cag60093 said (excellent overview), that Lake Forest College isn’t STEM oriented.

If your child is interested in a health profession (doctor, nurse, PT, OT, pharmacy, etc) - it has excellent resources. They recently built a huge new science center, have a ton of articulated agreements with grad schools in the surrounding areas and are extremely strong in neuroscience/biology/environmental.

We went to an open house with one of our children (we are in the Chicagoland area) and were incredibly impressed by the school’s offering in pre-health offerings and advising. Biology, BCBM and Neuroscience seem to be their strongest STEM offerings.
