The verdict

Good fit

St. Stephens's offers elite liberal-arts pedigree with a tiny 30-seat cohort and a clear pipeline into civil services, research, and social impact. The 96% cut-off is brutal and corporate salaries aren't the main draw, but if you care about ideas and purpose-driven careers, this is top-tier.
