Date: July 13th, 2008 9:32 PM Author: tripping alpha its a bit strange that with this long list of activities/accomplishments you only have 5 schools on your list. why not apply to the ones you list and also berkeley, stanford, and pomona. also could consider some place like claremont mckenna. where to go and where to apply depends on deciding a bit about what you might want to do and make sure you go some place that has enough programs available for you to pursue your potential interests. definitely visit places to get a sense of where you might like to attend. if you expand your search beyond california and oregon then a lot more options open up esp. in the northeast. if youre interested in small colleges then theres only a few good option on the west coast (pomona, reed, oxy) but if you look on the east coast theres a lot, lot more good liberal arts colleges.

Date: July 13th, 2008 10:39 PM Author: passionate corner At this point i haven't really narrowed down what i want to major in college, but i am interested in psychology or business/entrepreneurial. I visited Babson College and liked the campus, but I think my chances of getting accepted are pretty slim.I am in interested in liberal arts colleges as well so Oberlin College was appealing.

Date: July 14th, 2008 1:25 AM Author: Cerebral Big-titted Casino Main People Babson College and liberal arts colleges are polar opposites. Babson's course offerings beyond the business curriculum are about the same quality as your low-end community college.
If you're interested in the type of broad education you would get at a Lib.Arts. College, scratch Babson off your list.
It is a trade school. |

Date: July 15th, 2008 11:45 AM Author: black cheese-eating office It seems that you cannot decide between mammoth state schools and small, elite private ones. Visit them and see what feels best. Ironically, you will prolly have an easier time getting into the small places..... You might want to consider Connecticut College, Pitzer, Denison, Hampshire, Beloit, St. Olaf and Macalester.
