As a Bowdoin parent, I agree with the consesus why not Wesleyan. I only know WashU by reputation and it’s not where “eyeryone was some kind of freak”.

Fit is much more important at a LAC so please consider that if finances allow for that. There is a current thread about Bowdoin being a fit for “quirky kid”.

Also you probably know about Bowdoin’s islands but here is a little more info.
