[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wellesley has strong academics in all areas. Also, she can take classes at MIT. I studied Architecture at Wellesley and took all of my studio classes at MIT. If your daughter does well her first two years, she can choose to apply to the five year dual degree program (http://www.wellesley.edu/advising/classdeans/engineering/dd#RLiWpPjKKhMGcvGi.97). This would allow her to get a B.A. from Wellesley and a B.S. from MIT. I did not apply for this program because I wanted to stay at Wellesley all four years. And, I felt it was better to get my Bachelors and then go for my Masters. However, it is still an awesome option. I also know many women who took all of their classes at Wellesley and went on to have very successful careers in STEM fields. The MIT option is just an extra perk if she wants it.[/quote]

Thank you PP, it's most definitely worth a look. It is a little concerning that only 6 have completed the dual degree with MIT in the last decade. Of course, if you're highly motivated this shouldn't be a problem. Just would be more encouraging if there was a sizeable cohort who matriculated together through the program. [/quote]
