Best school for a English/PoliSci major

College Search & Selection
1

<p>So... I'm (almost) all done applying to colleges, and I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some insight.</p>

<p>I have decided that I will major in English, despite the risk of a life spent sleeping in a box at Grand Central Station. I'm thinking of minoring or having a second major in political science (most likely concentrating in US gov-- definitely not international relations).</p>

<p>I applied to the following schools: Bard C, Boston U, Bowdoin C, Emory U, George Washington U, Lafayette C, C of William and Mary, and Wesleyan U.</p>

<p>Assuming I am offered admission to every school on the aforementioned list (which is highly unlikely, but nonetheless...), does anyone have any advice/input regarding which one of these schools would be best for someone pursuing my educational course? </p>

<p>Just your opinions would be greatly appreciated. I don't need a list of the top rated English programs...I did a search and found that already. Thanks a million. You guys rock! :)</p>

<p>Thanks...I was thinking Bowdoin as well, but I doubt I will be accepted.</p>

<p>And teenage_cliche, I want to be a political speech-writer one day. Well, that's my goal anyway. I'll probably just end up teaching, in publishing, or in law. :)</p>
