@barvoets: I think the majority of the population would say Cornell and WashU have more prestige than Bowdoin/Midd.

@Cookieis77: I wouldn’t say a 10% difference is a “much much better chance”, considering Bowdoin gets more applicants than Colby. Also, students who would choose Colby > Bowdoin aren’t deterred from applying to Bowdoin because of an admissions stat…I was accepted to both and it was a VERY clear choice for me…it’s all about fit.
