I find STEM fascinating and want to major in engineering, but I also do not consider myself naturally technically inclined. Can students who enjoy learning math and science but are not markedly strong at them thrive at Harvey Mudd? My extracurricular interests include art, writing, and fashion. Will I be able to meet a fair number of students who share these same interests? Are the opportunities/job prospects at HMC any more than can be found at a large research public with a decently ranked engineering program? Do the majority of HMC graduates get into the grad schools to which they applied?
HMC is one of the most difficult colleges to get into due to the small class and the extremely self selecting pool of applicants. You will almost always need to be exceptional to get admission into harvey mudd.
you will prob meet about 2 other people like you at HMC.
@Bored1997 I have already been admitted. I am currently deciding whether or not to attend.
@theanaconda Thank you for your response.
If you have been admitted, you ARE markedly strong in math and science, whether you believe it or not 
It’s not like they made a mistake admitting you. If the college believes that you can do the work, then you should believe it, too!
The beauty of HMC is that it is both an LAC and within a consortium, so you should have no problem exploring your other interests too.
I agree with Qwerty568, you would not have been admitted if you didn’t have strong STEM scores.
Did you know that the president of Harvey Mudd is an accomplished artist? At admit day they mentioned several “other” interests of the admitted pool — the most often mentioned was music. And did you know humanities is an important part of the curriculum? So much so you even have to “concentrate” on a specific humanity. And as mentioned, HMC is part of a consortium, there are lots of “non-STEM” people throughout the other campuses.
As for job prospects and grad school admittance— I was really impressed with the numbers and places.
A significant number of Mudd students also focus on art for their humanities concentration. The philosophy at Mudd is that to be effective, scientists also must be schooled in the humanities. So there is a self-selection here. Those STEM students who only want to study STEM go somewhere else. But it is also why the school is so hard. Not only do you have a grueling core curriculum in the STEM courses, you also have to satisfy the humanities requirements and concentration. You come out tired, well educated, and very attractive to grad schools and employers.
