This tiny liberal arts college – its undergraduate enrollment is just over 1,400 students – is located in rural Maryland on the bank of the Chester River. The school’s setting in the Chesapeake Bay watershed factors into courses in history, archaeology, biology, chemistry and environmental studies, and the Center for Environment & Society encourages students to integrate ecological and social values. U.S. News & World Report ranked it #99 among liberal arts colleges.

 

The data for this story reflect completed college applications by members of the Class of 2016 from H-B Woodlawn Secondary Program, Wakefield High School, Washington-Lee High School and Yorktown High School in Arlington. Because the acceptance information was “self-reported” by students, school officials stress that they cannot verify its accuracy.
