[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC has put together a preliminary list of schools to apply for admission (science/engineering). Great stats, high test scores/solid grades, ECs are music & science, some sports. The list is comprised of all research universities. Do you think it’s a mistake to not consider any liberal arts colleges at all? I think the isolated campus locations and small sizes may have been the deterrent. I personally like the potential for more personal attention that LACs offer. I have no clue. DC is our oldest. Thoughts?[/quote] Maybe another approach would be to look for research universities where it's easy to take courses in any discipline, no matter what your major or school is, and where the school has a reputation for being nice to undergrads. Example: my impression is that Yale is a lot nicer to undergrads than Columbia is. [/quote]
