    Freshman: Being surrounded by passionate and motivated young women from around the country (and the globe!) has opened my mind to so many new experiences and points of views I have never considered. The professors are passionate and understanding as well as committed to students and their overall success. The school's setting is beautiful and the entire campus is a botanic garden! If you are hesitant about attending a woman's college because it is not a "traditional" college experience, you forget it is different at all when you are surrounded by wonderful people.

    Alum: This school is far better than the admissions statistics would suggest. The endowment, campus, resources, professors and alumni success rival the best of the Patriot League and the New England Liberal Arts colleges. This school has it all from humanities, to engineering and the undergraduate offerings in economics and business. Maybe the fact that the students here tend towards the pre-professional and seem less inclined towards academia reduces the allure to those interested in an academic career. Still, Lafayette is a rigorous school full of ambitious and talented students with amazing resources at the disposal and with proximity to the best labor market in the country, Philly, NYC, DC. Few colleges can offer what Lafayette does, and that is no exaggeration.
