Things to Consider
College of Saint Benedict
- 1 CRITICAL: Only 93 sunny days per year with harsh 5-6 month winters (avg Jan temp 8ยฐF) - opposite of student's love for sunshine
- 2 CRITICAL: Rural location contradicts urban preference - nearest city is 1 hour away, limited surrounding amenities
- 3 No dedicated marketing major - only available as concentration within Business Management
- 4 Small enrollment (~3,000) may limit social scene diversity and energy compared to larger schools
- 5 Moderate school spirit rather than high-energy rah-rah culture student may be seeking
- 6 Geographic isolation and 1.5-hour airport distance complicates travel and limits spontaneous urban access
