The Sisters Breakfast

Bryn Mawr College
Commencement Barnard College


Smith College
  THE SISTERS

Last week I went to a breakfast
meeting hosted by
The Sister Colleges:
Barnard, Bryn Mawr,
Mount Holyoke, Smith,
and Wellesley.  By the time
I had finished my coffee
and juice I was not only
sold on a woman's college,
but very excited by
the opportunities available
to students.

If you are a young woman that
likes an academic challenge combined
with small classroom size and
plenty of opportunities in
research, internships, and
study abroad then a woman's college
may truly be your answer.
Before saying no, take a look
at what these particular colleges
have to offer and you
just might change reconsider.
Perhaps you will add one to your
list!

And FYI there are plenty of
opportunities to take classes in a
coed setting.  Bryn Mawr students
are able to take classes at
Haverford, Swarthmore, and Penn.
Wellesley students can be found in
classes at M.I.T.
As part of the 5 College
Consortium students at Mount
Holyoke and Smith take classes
at University of Massachusetts,
Hampshire College, and Amherst
College.  As New Yorkers, we
Wellesley College
know that Barnard students are
welcome in classes at
Columbia University.

Each of the Sister Colleges comes
with a big price tag, about $51,000
a year......however these particular
colleges will meet full demonstrated
need.  Applicants will have to
fill out the FAFSA and the
CSS Profile.

Check out these amazing colleges
by going to their websites and then
planning a trip this summer or
upcoming fall.
