Randolph College
“When I interviewedQuite BrightOther
When I interviewed to go to RMWC there was so much HYPE on the fact that it was a woman's college and no one ever mentioned about the possibility of going co-ed. I went to an all girls college prep school and I wanted a woman's college and I had heard good things about RMWC. Well the school may have been a good school before Ginger Worden (Jolley Christman's puppet) and Jolley Christman stripped it of any character but I stuck it out one semester of co-education and this school was the worst experience of my life. It would've been better to just let RMWC die. I transferred to Scripps College and LOVE IT (my older sister was a junior when I transferred to Scripps). Randolph College is very sub par. The students are very bitchy and catty and the school is very good at dropping programs in mid-stream. There are some very remarkable professors at Randolph but the truly good ones don't stay. If your looking for an EXTRAORDINARY college go for Scripps when your told something there it's the truth. STAY AWAY FROM RANDOLPH COLLEGE IF YOUR SMART.
