Clark University in Worcester, Mass. is one of just 40 schools profiled in the Loren Pope book, ‘Colleges That Change Lives’. Most students live on campus, stay on weekends, have a liberal arts major, study abroad at some point and attend either graduate school or a PeaceCorp or AmeriCorp type program after 4 years. For students with good grades, Clark offers a tuition free 5th year to complete a Master’s Degree.
Accepted students typically have above average grades and test scores but a C student or a student with lower test scores still may have a chance here. It’s a small college, with just 2200 students. 60% are female and almost 10% are international students. Diversity is priority #1 according to their director of admissions.
Each college in this city boasts about the consortium of schools that share transportation to and from each campus, library materials, and even classes for the 35,000 college students attending college in Worcester on a typical day.
