Stonehill

One of the better academic schools in the Northeast 10. Make sure they offer the curriculum that interests your son. very good conference. Team is generally in the top 5 or 6.

Thanks.

Our daughter applied there and was accepted. Limited majors. She was only offered 10k merit aid though - and she was 10th in class with 2100 SATs (1300 math/reading, 800 writing).

Made them too expensive for us.

Thanks Sandman, that's interesting. Congrats on your daughter's great credentials.

I'm sure it varies student to student, but you definitely should apply. Our daughter graduated from Stonehill in 08 and has done well career wise since then.

She loved her time there and continues to receive support from the Alumni office and her professors. Fantastic study abroad program and internship opportunities. She did London one semester and interned in DC another, which directly led to a job on the Hill.

Gave some aid, but not tons. Still, it was well worth the student loans to see it through. Highly recommend them.

I have heard from another Stonehill alum that there is a strong alum network.

Just back from their one day evaluation camp. Son liked the coach and the players. The event was well run and precisely as described.

Hey TwoTex, we were there too. My guy was one of the two catchers on the black team. I thought this was one of the better events we've been at. Total and respectful attention by the coaching staff, making lots of notes for promised follow up evaluations.

They dealt well with the rain challenged outdoors too.

Combine the coaching staff with the great academics and the wood bat D2 league makes this a great place to play ball.

RedSoxFan,

We came away very impressed as well. The event had a very personal touch which you don't see at every camp. I noticed how the head coach never diverted his attention away from what was happening on the field. They were clearly evaluating players, not just taking money and going through the motions.

I'm looking forward to the evaluation. Didn't expect it, but always good to get.
