<p>Hey nice group of schools have you looked into Brown, Dartmouth, Rice, Wash U, and Northwestern?</p>

<p>hey,</p>

<p>brown and dartmouth dont offer transfer finaid for canadians :( neither does duke. i don't know anything about rice, wash u or northwestern other than by name... the ones on my list are there because i either worked with people who go or teach there, or visited the campus and sat in on classes = really liked it! :) i keep getting people telling me to apply to johns hopkins, but i thought that was a primarily sciences-strong school.</p>

<p>The problem is that those those disciplines are not wholly separate; advancing in each of them contributes to advancement in my overarching goal. I plan to study more carefully a view of ethics that incorporates Kantian practical philosophy yet heeds the issues posed by decision-theory and evolution.</p>

<p>I envy you Philosophy majors.</p>
