Oh, don’t be such a USNews groupie.



It’s has nothing to do with USNWR rankings. It has to do with relative class profiles vs what they were in the '90s. Recent stats on Wesleyan show it actually has a higher acceptance rate and less students in the top 10% of their hs class than even Colgate. This was certainly not the case in the last decade.



I’m just saying that Dartmouth is my first choice because it has everything that I’m looking for and if I don’t get into Dartmouth I want to know the LAC’s most similar that have everything that I"m looking for as well.



Having also had Dartmouth as a top choice, I would say the LACs that are most similar are Williams, Bowdoin, Colgate, Middlebury, Washington & Lee, Colby, Bucknell, Union, Lafayette.
