Bryn Mawr College Guys & Girls had a new discussion posted by collegeschmollege

I heard from my mother that students in private women's colleges are very catty and will give you a hard time if you're not from good financial circumstances. How much of this is true? (Bryn mawr is my top choice school (applied for ED), so, honestly, I'm kind of scared.)

My daughter has not found this to be true at all. She has loved her freshman year tremendously and believe me, does not come from money!

Granted, Bryn Mawr does have its share of students from wealthy families but it also has a good percentage from other segments of the financial continuum. In general, catty and snobby are not the character traits I think of when it comes to Bryn Mawr women. More like serious, driven, involved and welcoming. I think the "traditions" that occur in intervals throughout the year help bind the student body together into a community whose members genuinely look out for one other.
