Thank you for visiting ICE!

Mount Holyoke students

In the past two weeks ICE had 3 great visits from: Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, and Skidmore College.

I thought that I would share just a few things that we learned in the Information Sessions.

All three of these colleges are private institutions, and although the price tags are large--each school stressed their commitment to financial aid.  These colleges are small, liberal arts colleges....boasting small classroom size......and many opportunities for students to follow their interests.

Both Mt. Holyoke and Hampshire do not require SAT or ACT scores and these 2 schools are part of the famous, 5 College Consortium in Western Massachusetts.

Hampshire College

Skidmore College does look for strong test scores, but that in the admission process there is flexibility.

Even though Mt. Holyoke is a woman's only college...there are men on campus.  Mt. Holyoke students definitely have access to a co-ed education.

That Hampshire has a working farm!

Skidmore College between classes

The Mt. Holyoke campus is diverse, 49% of the students are international or students of color.

A Skidmore student passionate about his cooking, created his own television show which was broadcast on campus.

ICE has 6 students attending Hampshire College, 1 student at Mount Holyoke (another just graduated last year), and we are waiting for a lucky someone to attend Skidmore.  You could be the first!
