<p>So after approximately 500 million hours researching colleges, I think I know what's important to me. I won't list my stats here for several reasons, though mostly because I don't want this to turn into a chances thread. So anyway, here we go:</p>
<p>I want to major in Classics, with an emphasis in the ancient languages. Since I'll be in AP Latin in the fall, and I plan to study my a** off to get a 5, I should be at the advanced level for college. So yes, I want a school that doesn't just offer "introductory" couses in Latin. </p>
<p>I want to learn Arabic and Sanskrit. Since Sanskrit severely limits the number of schools, I won't completely eliminate a college that doesn't offer it, but I would rather it did. </p>
<p>I don't want a school with a ridiculous core curriculum, aka Columbia. I prefer schools with loose distribuition requirements, or at least, with tons of options for each requirement. Also, any schools that require chapel are immediately out. I liked Baylor until I realized they had Chapel requirements. Say what?</p>
<p>Also, I'm trying to avoid public schools as much as possible. I will need a lot of financial aid and/or merit (if I even qualify) and public schools are usually really meager for out of state applicants, so that's a bit of a problem. </p>
<p>Location and size aren't that big a deal to me. Afterall, UCONN is my safety and it's huge, and I'm looking at Williams and it's on the small side so yea. Although, frankly, I'd rather attend a school that's on the small-ish side, like the ones below. </p>
<p>So apart from Harvard and Yale, am I mising any schools that meet the above criteria:</p>
<p>Brown
Bard
Rice
Emory
Williams
UCONN</p>
