IMO it is difficult to compare unless you can almost audit the records and be sure you have apples - apples comparison. Schools sometimes measure things differently

the most recent US News & World Report Sept 2003
shows some different stats (probably based on 2002 in some cases)

Alumni giving rate
Colgate 45%
HC 52%

SAT's 25 - 75 percentile (not too different)
Colgate 1240 - 1410
HC 1160 - 1320
a point to consider: many at HC claim that HC admissions weighs SAT's less than most schools, however....

% of class in top 10% of HS class
Colgate - 68%
HC - 59%
one more however,though - there is a footnote next to Colgates stats though that say the date is based on less then 51% of the incoming freshmen. So, could it be less representative of the actual class than HC's numbers?

One thing is clear though - Colgate seems to have more money. Colgates financial resources rank is 35 and HC is 49. For faculty resources, Colgate is 27 and HC is 100.
Another thing appears to be true, Catholic colleges in general are well known to have lesser endowments and less money in general. I guess they got into the fundraising game later than the others.
