Vanderbilt or Colgate

Let me give you a little more information. This summer I went to NYC, so we took a drive to upstate New York and I visited Colgate. I haven’t visited Vandy yet, but I will soon. I agree, Colgate is a beautiful campus, but I’m not sure how beautiful it will seem when it’s covered with snow and too cold to be outside anyway.

I like the small undergraduate size and the personal focus, but I’m afraid my networking, outdoor activities, and overall opportunities might be limited a little more at Colgate. Anyway, the average class size at both schools is supposed to be 19.

After graduation, I would like to go to graduate school to earn an MBA, preferably somewhere with a big name like Harvard, Stanford, or UPenn that is heavily recruited by companies. Will I have a better chance getting into one of these graduate programs from either school?
