I would not recommend this college. Of course, it has been a few years since I attended, and the President has since retired, but I would still advise against it.
The classes are small, which was awesome, because you got the one on one attention that you needed. But the college is trying to attract more students to make the campus more like a university, so it takes away that "small school" charm.
Lastly, the college is a Division 3 for sports. Students don't get paid to play, and the main emphasis was supposed to be "classes before althetics." Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely passionate about sports, but when a professor told me that I was missing too many classes because my coach wanted our team to practice 3x a day, I was extremely upset. I took the issue to my coach because I still wanted to be on the team and do well in school, and I was kicked off the team. When I then took this issue up with the President, he said he stood behind the opinion of the coach. I found that to be extremely disappointing. Why go to college if you can't experience the best of classes and athletics? And why are the students punished for treating a Division 3 school like it is a Division 1 championship team?
Washington College has a gorgeous campus in the heart of an early 18th century colonial town (Chestertown). Unfortunately, students are literally sequestered in the quiet hamlet as the nearest cities of any note (Baltimore, Washington D.C., Philadelphia) are all over an hour away by car. Washington College offers a wide array of courses in the liberal arts but lacks such staples as Greek and Latin. It's claim to fame is a much-reported, undergraduate writing program. However, faculty are not prepared to groom students for graduate school and so would-be talent is often wasted at the next level of education.
