<p>megan - “MIT seemed to be a little limiting too for someone who wants to explore a liberal arts curriculum.” MIT students can cross register to take classes at Harvard. He can take anything there that MIT does not have. Only 10-15 minutes bus or train to go back and forth between MIT and Harvard.</p>
<p>Anyway, like Doborah said, it’s up to your son to decide what he is going to do. Furthermore, your son’s interest may change quickly when he starts college or even in the middle of the HS senior year. There are lots of stories that students reverse interests after one or two years in college.</p>
