From Google News Search: "Amherst College" Is Vanderbilt University better than Amherst College? Q. Excluding social life and quality of facilites/campus, which school has the better academics? Asked by Cristina - Sat Apr 11 11:38:50 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I would say Amherst, because it's been consistently ranked FIRST in liberal arts colleges. Also as a college, you'd have more one-on-one time and attention with professors, and it seems to be a much more close-knit community. You said to exclude social life from the academic experience, but I think they are both integrated into each other. Learning in an environment where you are most comfortable (whether that's a large university or a small college) will contribute tons to your learning experience. hope this helps Answered by swuvvy - Sat Apr 11 12:45:38 2009 which should I apply early to: Brown, Tufts, Dartmouth, or Amherst College.
