Interesting you perceive Swat to be a less competitive place than Williams, because we definitely got the opposite impression from our visits to those schools. In fact at the Swat info session, we chuckled because it seemed the 3 presenters were super competitive about their take on how non-competitive the place was. But then our tour guide told us the no computed gpa and no competition spiel talked about at the info session was largely not true!

We also thought that despite the really nice Williams campus, that Swat was more beautiful.

Swat seems more intense. Williams definitely is sportier. Bigger and better athletic facilities, more teams, bigger rosters, more coaches and they like to win and our very proud of their winning tradition. But in terms of academics, both top of the top. Swat has the honors program for upper class men, Williams has tutorials. Check those out and see which appeals to you more.
