I intend to major in Psychology (clinical) and/or double major in some of the following: Optometry Pharmacy (not a technician) Biology Creative Writing/Screenplay etc. Any suggestions? I do want to go to a fairly small school, 5,000 or less, but in a fairly suburban area. I've been eyeing Tufts and others.

You're not necessarily going to have a better chance of attending med-school or graduate school as a result, but it'll give you a better iea of what lies ahead... at least in my opinion. do0rdie Posted at 12:36 am on July 13, 2008 Well, as far as the northeast goes... Check out the Ivies if your grades are in good condition, but other (mostly smallish) schools that are really well known either in those fields or just in general liberal arts majors: Williams College, Providence College, Amherst, Smith (female only Undergrad), Hampshire, Boston College, Tufts, Union, Colgate, Bowdoin, Haverford, and Ithaca are all good ones to at least look at. bexz10 Posted at 9:34 pm on July 11, 2008 If you want to go into psych you should go to a bigger uni that has research opportunities.

Liberal arts just means one major hasn't been popular enough to classify the school as something else, like a business school. I go to Gettysburg College, and I love it. www.gettysburg.edu. I also looked at Lafayette, which was beautiful, Carnegie Mellon which is also gorgeous, and Bucknell which I absolutely hated. My cousin goes to Tufts and she really enjoys it. nigeltheoutlaw Posted at 10:50 am on July 7, 2008 Liberal?! *Gasp* Permious Posted at 10:47 am on July 7, 2008 Most of those aren't arts subjects?
