if you get into wes, what major will you choose?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Wesleyan University
1

<p>i'd choose the college of letters or neuroscience and behavior <3</p>

<p>and/or romance languages</p>

2

<p>I'm already in, and I'm thinking of not majoring in Chemistry, but instead, double-majoring in Spanish and Physics.</p>

3

<p>Film studies, with either a double major in...something or the certificate in international relations :)</p>

4

<p>A double major in government/economics....or the CSS major </p>

<p>=)</p>

5

<p>Computer science and film.</p>

6

<p>neuroscience and behavior !</p>

7

<p>feminist gender and sexuality studies i think</p>

<p>congrats canadian guy!</p>

10

<p>yaaay, looking forward to seeing you next year, canadian guy! biochem is awesome here, btw, too :P
(to be vaguely on topic: i'm a junior math & soc major.)</p>

11

<p>Congrats, canadian guy! Biochem is definitely great here. :) If you wanna talk to me about anything regarding Wesleyan, don't hesitate to contact me! :)</p>

12

<p>environmental science, government/international relations, or a happy medium, assuming one exists</p>

13

<p>I'm a freshman now too, and as of right now, I'm thinking about doubling up on College of Letters and Classical Civilization :D</p>

<p>If anyone has any questions about courses and the like, feel free to ask! ^_^</p>

14

<p>English ... because I'm unoriginal.</p>

15

<p>Luwain, i'm thinkin of majoring in the college of letters, and romance languages (maybe?). it's aka "college of love" right? i hear those who major in it really like it. and is it very rigorous? thankss</p>

16

<p>If I get in, I'm also doign biochem</p>

17

<p>yankeeman90: your happy medium is the Science in Society program. You pick one science (for you, E&ES) and one social science (Government), and then take a couple extra classes. Presto!</p>

<p>Wesleyan</a> University - Science in Society program</p>

18

<p>i am actually scared to post here. i feel like i'm jinxing myself. haha. </p>

<p>but oh well. if i get into wes, i want to major in studio arts. if there's room. if not, anthropology, philosophy, orr possibly any number of other things.</p>

19

<p>liz...at wes, you could probably actually do a studio art-philosophy-anthropology major...at the open house, they said a number of students triple-major...</p>

<p>the flexibility is so exciting! lol</p>

20

<p>triple-majoring is ridiculous. there is almost no legit reason to do it and, even when feasible, ELIMINATES almost all flexibility from your schedule. </p>

<p>even double-majoring seriously reduces your amount of choice-- the fewest number of courses a major requires at wesleyan is 9, and this goes well up into the teens, depending on the department. so trying to complete two majors plus geneds, out of 32 classes required to graduate, you have precious few free-choice slots left.</p>

<p>i've seen a lot of prefrosh on here saying they're going to double-major. for some people, this is a great and logical choice. for most others, it does nothing other than give you less freedom in selecting courses unrelated to your major. </p>

<p>don't let anyone convince you that double-majoring is somehow better than single. i will have a much better wes education with my single major than many of my double-majoring friends. i've gotten to do many more cool classes while they've been stressing about scheduling in all of their requirements.</p>
