Agree that Hamilton ( and Colgate) are hard to reach by airplane and a bit tricky by Amtrak train. My son was dissuaded by the distance from Albany airport (Southwest is our official airline). BTW Oberlin (mentioned above as attracting distant candidates) is under 30 mins from the Cleveland airport–and the music conservatory is a special draw. IMO Hamilton has elevated itself when it joined the NESCAC sports league, which includes Williams, Amherst, and the Maine schools.
