<p>I’ve been accepted to Brown and Bowdoin, but cannot choose which to go for. I am not sure what I would like to major in, and I am looking for a good liberal arts education and a school that will help me explore and develop my interests and pursue a career. I am interested in environmental sciences, but not as much in the mathematics or cellular level, I also enjoy writing and Interantional Relations, and would like to attend a school where professors are very open and helpful.
Thank you!</p>
<p>don’t mind my hyper-enthusiasm but BROWN. 150%. 200%. Brown professors are all so willing to help with whatever they can, especially because since Brown has a completely open curriculum, students take classes because they are genuinely interested and dedicated, and professors feed off of that positive enthusiastic energy. </p>
<p>As far as majors go, International Relations goes, Brown’s Watson Institute for International Studies is where it’s at. Brown’s flexibility will also allow you to fit other IR important classes into your schedule, such as linguistics, history etc., whether or not they are actually requirements for your major.</p>

<p>And good luck making your decision!! Both schools are great and you’ll probably be happy at either, but my vote’s for Brown Hope to see you next year :)</p>
<p>I didn’t even see that you said you were interested in environmental sciences! Brown has the “Center For Environmental Studies” which has probably got everything that you are looking for.</p>
<p>And in terms of flexibility, you can’t get more flexible than an entirely absent requirement system. If you don’t ever want to take a molecular bio class, you never have to!</p>
