  I second everything that Ray says. Marlboro kids go on to do great things – a lot of alumni go on to study at some of the world’s best grad schools, while others devote their lives to starting non-profits and saving the world. Marlboro really instills this feeling that if you’re passionate and driven enough about what you want to do, you can do it.

  Overall Score: (4.36/5.00)

  Marlboro College is a very small school with a rigorous, writing-intensive academic program in southern Vermont. The community is self-governed, and everyone has a say in how things are done through a Town Meeting held every three weeks. Each student’s curriculum is self-designed to cater to their individual interests and passions. Students are encouraged to study broadly and draw parallels between cross-disciplinary subjects. The Marlboro experience culminates in an intensive independent senior project called the Plan of Concentration. Plan, as it is called, has been cited by many alumni as a key to their success in graduate studies by preparing them to write a graduate thesis.
