<p>Question: What are some top colleges that do not have core classes/required courses? Brown is the only school that comes to mind but I'm sure there are others...?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Amherst also has no core/distribution requirements, besides one freshman seminar.</p>
<p>University of Rochester
Wesleyan
Vassar</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins has no core curriculum. They use a system of distribution requirements instead.</p>
<p>Hamilton in Clinton, NY has no core classes.</p>

<p>This brings up an important point. There are a ton of colleges without core or required classes that still have some sort of distribution requirements. Amherst and Brown are the only ones I know of that have no distribution requirements either.</p>
<p>Smith does not have any distribution requirements except for one writing intensive class.</p>
<p>Vassar requires one freshman seminar (writing intensive class), one quantitative course, and proficiency in a language. It also has no distribution requrements....</p>
<p>So yeah, if you're looking for a college which have no specific distribution/course requirements, I'd say you can't do much better than Vassar :-).</p>
