    FINALLY! Someone who is talking about Bryn Mawr! I’m an highschool sophomore and Bryn Mawr is one of my dream colleges (alongside Smith College). I love how you talked about the college! Could you make more videos about Bryn Mawr?

      omg Margaret, so glad you liked this one!! this is definitely the video where I talked the most about bmc, but I also have some other ones on this playlist:

      i loved Smith as well and honestly mostly loved bmc more because of its location closer to a city. love to see it

    Thank you for making this video! I am currently a highschool junior who is going to tour Bryn Mawr in around a week. My sister went to Haverford, so I've seen Bryn Mawr a couple times. This video has really heightened my interest so, if the tour goes well, I definitely see myself applying this fall!

      Hi, I'm so happy to hear that! I've graduated now and would probably have different (and slightly more nuanced) things to say, but I did really like a lot of my time there - and I can unequivocally say the English and Political Science professors are wonderful. If you want to ask more, I'm happy to chat - my twitter is ellexamines if you ever want to dm!

    AHHHHHHHHH I practically squealed when I saw you'd posted - uploaded, whatever - and realized you're hopefully going to be posting more! And I'm SO happy for you. I'm Indian and still in high school, so I'd honestly never heard of this college before (to be fair, I haven't heard of most American colleges beyond the really famous ones), but it sounds so great! It's everything I've ever wanted from /my/ college experience, tbh - this place almost sounds like a utopia xD).
    Ahhhhhhh this entire video just made me SO HAPPY I hope everything continues to go as perfectly for you! And good luck!

    I had the exact same experience! I toured only a week before the early decision II deadline, and I wasn't even sure I'd apply -- and then I fell in love on the tour! It felt like home right from the start. Bryn Mawr does seem a bit like one big sorority...but in the best way possible! Can't wait to get there in the fall and meet everyone

    im not sure if you’ll see this because the video is a couple months old, but did you take any classes at Haverford? im really interested in the relationship between the two schools, along with just Bryn Mawr in general

    • @ellexamines
      @ellexamines  4 года назад +1

      hi! sorry this took me a little while!! so far, no I haven't taken any classes at Hav. I was in a bi-college a capella group and work with the bi-college news, though, and have had Haverford students in classes before! I think I'd say the two schools are as intertwined as you want them to be; I've had friends participate in a lot of Hav social life, and also friends who didn't at all (me lowkey). there's a bus that rides between campus (will be sort of limited this next semester, though). overall it's kind of nice having another school so nearby to expand extracurriculars :)

      @ellexamines  3 года назад +4

      You can request a roomie! A lot of people meet in Facebook groups. I decided against picking and went for a randomized roommate and basically got paired with my rooming soulmate, but my experiences are NOT universal.

    So verbose. You took over three minutes to get down to brass tacks. You don't seem the sophisticated college type. Bryn Mawr used to be the ultimate in sophistication. They could say much in few words.
