I recently got accepted to CMC for the class of 2023, and the financial aid that I’ve gotten from CMC is the best I’ve gotten so far. I know their academics are stellar, but I have a few concerns. First, I consider myself an idealistic, creative, emotional person with radical/left political ideologies. I know this really does not vibe with CMC’s political culture, but seeing as I can take classes in different claremont colleges, would I be able to mingle with students from those colleges and feel more comfortable in my ideologies/personality? For those already attending CMC, was it common for students of the different colleges to mingle? I am also concerned about the partying. I don’t mind attending parties every once in a while, but I’d rather just drive to LA for a night out than attend a frat party. Would this lifestyle conflict with CMC’s culture too much?
