[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wellesley with dual enrollment or courses at MIT?[/quote]
It's possible but Wellesley does not encourage it. They say the Wellesley/Olin dual degree is a better bet. 
 From the Wellesley Course Catalog:
"The MIT-Wellesley double degree program enables a Wellesley student who is accepted to the program to earn a B.A. degree from Wellesley and an S.B. degree from MIT over the course of five years. This opportunity is not viable for most students due to the highly competitive nature of MIT transfer admissions as well as the challenges of earning two degrees in five years from highly rigorous institutions."
vs.
"The Olin-Wellesley Double-Degree Program enables a Wellesley student to obtain a second bachelor's degree from Olin College through a fifth year of study at Olin. Students apply to the program during the fall of their junior year; admission is selective. Students enrolled in the double-degree program begin their engineering study at Olin while they are enrolled at Wellesley; by the time they complete their Wellesley liberal arts degrees, double-degree students have typically completed all of the Olin math and science prerequisites as well as at least five engineering courses towards their Olin degree. In their fifth year, double-degree students enroll at Olin College and spend both semesters in residence there, completing requirements as well as the senior capstone project."[/quote]
