Melinda Said:

Any good liberal arts colleges in NYC area, preferably? Or New England area?

We Answered:

You are talking about an area which has more good liberal arts colleges than any other part of the country. I don't know what you mean by "good" or for what you might be eligible, but if you look at the current U.S. News rankings of liberal arts colleges, Williams College and Amherst, #1 and #2, are both in Massachusetts. Middlebury and Wellesley, tied for #4, are in Vermont and Massachusetts respectively. Bowdoin, at #6, is in Maine. Vassar, at #12, is in Poughkeepsie, NY, and it is tied with Wesleyan, in Middletown, CT. Smith, at #14, is in Northampton, MA, and Hamilton, at #18, is in Clinton, NY. And that just covers the top 20.

Edward Said:

Do you know any great liberal arts colleges in New England?

Good question. I understand that Brown University if very good in Rhode Island. Boston University, NYU are also supposed to be quite good. Perhaps this will be a good option for you.

Good luck!

co-ed liberal arts college in new england with equestrian team?

We Answered:

There are tons. CollegeBoard shows up with 38 co-ed colleges in New England that have equestrian teams, but I'd check out the Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association (IHSA) if I were you. In Zone 1, Region 3 of the IHSA alone, there are 13 schools: University of Massachusetts, Smith College, Amherst College, Mount Holyoke College, Williams College, Clark University, Becker College, Springfield College, College of the Holy Cross, American International College, Elms College, Westfield State College, Landmark College, and the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. Smith and Mount Holyoke are women's colleges, though, and Clark is clearly not a liberal arts college.
