[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many small colleges have great bio programs and you get a lot of time with faculty. I went to Beloit (which gives a ton of aid) and was a bio minor and many of my friends were majors. I’d say they’re split, now, between field research (went on to get MS degrees) and being medical doctors. [/quote]

Wow, my DS recently graduated from Beloit with a bio minor and a major in another science, also with many friends who were bio majors, some of whom are now in med school.  DS received very generous merit aid such that the cost was similar to going in state. Beloit has an amazing new science building. Due to the small size of the college, my DS had amazing research opportunities, wonderful relationships with his professors and got a great education.  He’s applying now for grad school. When he was deciding between Beloit and a big research university, the grad students he talked with at the university told him to go to Beloit for undergrad because he’d get to know his professors better and have opportunities at Beloit that only grad students would get at the big research university.

How funny! I graduated a while ago, and am very jealous of the people who got to learn in the new science building.

It really is such a great school. [/quote]
