Caltech: Humanities Question

<p>I'm currently a junior who's interested in majoring in the humanities in college. However, only science and engineering interest my father and extended family. As a result, I've come to love and appreciate science as well from an early age. Therefore, I feel that Caltech would provide a great environment for me, since it offers both science and humanities.</p>

<p>My question is: How does admissions work for those interested in majoring only in the humanities? Also, am I required to have taken part in scientific research?</p>

<p>I would appreciate any input from fellow CCers and/or those knowledgable with the Caltech admissions process.</p>
