Liberal Arts includes natural sciences and mathematics.

What an ignorant post. The sciences are part of the liberal arts.

Warning to OP, Harvey Mudd is a CS/Engineering college. Something ridiculous like 2% of their class majors in Bio (they only have like 10 majors). It was not a great fit for DC who cares a lot about Biochem, so we chose neighboring Caltech.

Neuroscience is a more rigorous version of psychology and is oftentimes pursued by women who hope to go to medical school.

Thanks for this. There are so many blowhards on this board who don't understand what liberal arts colleges are — or that the liberal arts include life science (biology, neuroscience) and physical science (physics, astronomy, chemistry, and earth science).
