College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm looking for colleges with a dance department, biology department, and french department. I like the secluded campus feel and i've already selected some schools to look at. Right now i'm very interested in the following:</p>

<p>Mehlenburg
Skidmore
Scripps
Vassar
Goucher</p>

<p>I do many types of dance such as ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, modern, etc. I dance about 15 hours a week. I am looking for a good major or minor where I would be about to major in something else...either dance or biology. I'm not exactly sure.</p>

<p>I do a lot of community service and I play tennis as well. I'm not sure I will continue tennis in college. After senior year, I will have completed AP French Language and AP French Literature so I will prefer a French program that will take me far. </p>

<p>I am in the top 10 in my class (currently 6/400) I take many AP and Honors classes and get A's in them at a public school.</p>

<p>I have no preference on location at the time being, I am just looking for good suggestions to consider.</p>

<p>Thank you for the help.</p>

<p>Middlebury could be a great option. Solid dance program, strong in the sciences, the Mecca of language study, secluded...Seems almost perfect for you.</p>

<p>Northwestern. They have a very good dance department in the School of Communications and strong women's tennis program.</p>

<p>what do you know about biology and french there?</p>

<p>Honestly, Northwestern is going to have solid programs in just about everything, including biology and French. </p>

<p>I would have thought it would be a bit too large for you though, as you seem to be oriented towards LACs.</p>

<p>yeah, i do like LACs.</p>

<p>Northwestern isn't huge like USC or public U but it's still a lot bigger than LACs. It may not be a good fit for you. It does have many creative/performance type students since they have good film, music, and theater programs also.</p>

<p>thanks, it seems strong, but not right for me. thanks for the suggestion. i tend to be more comfortable in smaller settings. Northwestern might be a little overwhelming for me.</p>
