One of the most respected academic institutions in the country, set on a beautiful campus. The fantastic faculty-to-student ratio, considerable flexibility for your coursework, and ability to work with professors (including research) directly as an undergraduate are all things that help this school stand out. If you are fortunate enough to be accepted, it would be a hard decision not to attend (as long as you are aware this is a small school, with a relatively small student population). We found the vibe to be rather low key, as opposed to some of the Ivy's we spent time at. The amount of money in endowment at this school (and some competing schools) also tends to indicate a lot of graduate loyalty.
