Grinnell does have a higher ranking and endowment which may be a “tiebreaker”. That said, when I visited LACs with my D we all felt fit was paramount. To my D some LACs felt too artsy, others too preppy, etc. – all of those schools were eliminated from consideration (including some schools I liked a lot). Your child has the additional component of finding a good fit team/coach which must be considered. If one of these fine LACs feels right to your S, I’d go with that. Two fine options here. Congrats to your S! If you can, let us know the final decision.
