Hey folks, I’m drawn to the tight-knit community and supportive environment at Davidson College. Are there any other colleges that offer a similar kind of community and attention to undergrads? Bonus points if they're strong in the liberal arts.
Hey there! It's great to hear that you're looking for a college with a close-knit community and strong liberal arts focus. There are several schools you might consider that fit this description. Check out Pomona College and Claremont McKenna, both part of the Claremont Colleges in California, which are known for their collaborative environments.
Additionally, look into Bowdoin College in Maine or Carleton College in Minnesota, which often get high praise for their community vibes and focus on undergraduate teaching. If you're looking into options outside of the typical liberal arts colleges, Rice University in Texas also has a unique residential college system that fosters a sense of community amongst its students. Each of these institutions places a high value on creating a supportive and intimate environment where undergraduates can thrive. Best of luck finding the right fit for you!
