Say to the parent

"Harvey Mudd is a truly special place. It combines the rigor of a top-tier engineering school with the personalized attention of a small liberal arts college. Your child will not only receive a world-class education in their chosen field, but they will also develop the critical thinking and communication skills that are essential for success in any career."

Say to the student

"At Harvey Mudd, you'll be surrounded by people who are just as passionate about learning as you are. It's a place where you can geek out about anything from quantum physics to Shakespeare, and where you'll be challenged to think in new and creative ways. Plus, the collaborative environment means you'll make lifelong friends who will support you every step of the way."
