Franklin Pierce also has an all-purpose indoor bubble that is great for winter workouts. Their athletic facilities are top of the line. Also,I believe that their athletes had the highest average GPA for schools in the Northeasat-10 last year. The campus is nice and it is definately a small school (2,000-3,000). It's worth checking out.

I think its smaller than that, NHBaseball....
If you look at Princeton Review you can determine many things about all colleges.
Plug in the school name and you will see the selectivity rating.....what kind of students they attract and # of students on campus, to name a few. Franklin Pierce for instance, has a 60 SR and 3% of hs students were in the top 10% and 45% of hs students were in the top 45%.
One needs to remember there is a very broad range of acceptance numbers between schools in the Northeast10.......which may, of course, also indicate a significant difference in curriculum and expectations.

Current enrollment at FP is 1591
During my sons recruiting process he had the pleasure of being recruited by several of the Northeast 10 schools...FP included....I do believe they are one of 5 schools that do not require SAT's for admisssion.
While I agree that the "bubble" is a drawing card I do not believe it is one of the most beautiful campuses in the Northeast...it is very isolated and if you do not possess a car you will be stranded... also it is at the base of MT. Monadonock which gets whacked in the winter with some powerful snow storms...there are many more campuses in that group that have more accessability to off campus activities ie Stonehill, Merrimack and St A's...their campuses are also quite beautiful...Bryant is another beauty...these schools as well do have a higher academic standard...I would check their websites to determine what is needed for admission...because, afterall, going to college is NOT all about baseball and campus beauty...it is about learning and becoming successful after graduation....IMHO

Very well put Catchermom , My son went there for his freshmen year thought he would get use to the country but also did not like the academics there . When he was applying to colleges to transfer they would not accept his English and Math courses that he had taken .
My son is currently a Sophomore at FPC. Was recruited by Coack King and given an academic scholoarship. He has not played baseball at FPC. He has been cut the past two years. They recruit between 50 and 60 players a year for a roster of about 33. Coach King is tough, and you must be totally committed to the program. he is a no nonsense Coach and plays to win. As far as academics, my son has made the deans list 3 semesters so far. The new baseball facility is top notch. As far as location goes, you will need a car to get anywhere. BD
