So we went to Lehigh or Lafayette.
Lehigh and Laughyette are only 12 miles from each other and close to the NJ Border. A lot of students from Central to North Jersey go to the L & L's because only Princeton has similar academic 'cache'. A lot of Lehigh kids have L & L as 'backups' to the Ivies, and they are both very convenient for traveling..for most, two hours or less.
