[quote=Anonymous]I went to Harvey Mudd for undergrad. If you want to go to Mudd, you'd better be very, very, very sure you like STEM. It is intense. They weed out a lot of kids sophomore year (i.e., they flunk). I had a number of friends who took liberal arts courses at the other colleges, and they wound up realizing they didn't want to do STEM. This is a very common thing to happen at Mudd. They faced the choice you described: "she knows Mudd has good tech outcomes, what happens if she didn't want to do that?" Some of them transferred to other schools, others dropped out of school altogether. Many of them wished they had gone to a larger school with non-STEM options. For that reason, I'd probably lean towards Columbia in your daughter's case.[/quote]
