Swarthmore is intense, but you can get a lot out of it if you stay focused.

Justin

Swarthmore is one of the most liberal, idealistic colleges in the country, for better or for worse, as 49{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of graduates go onto non-profit jobs.

Brandon

Swarthmore is a school of passionate people engaging each other in common endeavours. Many of them are passionate about different things, and often things that I am not passionate about; when I am with them, however, I become interested thanks to their enthusiasm and energy. I love that students see eachother as colleagues rather than as competitors, all striving towards their own goals and assisting eachother towards them, rather than fighting each other for 'supremacy.'
