Just above NYC in Westchester County, Sarah Lawrence is a small (1300 students) liberal arts school that is unique in many ways. Students typically take just 3 classes per term. Classes are very small, students get to know their professors very well, and each class requires a major independent study project. The college’s main focus is on writing and most students will continue on to grad school.
Total cost per year is over $53,000. Most live on campus, most study abroad at some point. Most are female (79%). SAT and ACT are not required.
It’s a very pretty campus, with many stone buildings in a nice neighborhood. The relationships students make with their profs and their ‘dons’ (advisors) was a point stressed during the tour and info session.
