Only home school as far as I know.
I think it was already mentioned but you can apply (if you are interested in religious studies) to either Union Theological Seminary or The Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS/List) and get a dual degree with either Columbia or Barnard. The Barnard degree is the regular one, I think the Columbia is with the school of general studies which is under Columbia University but is not Columbia College. You have to apply to the specific programs.
If you want backdoors, there are easier ones. . . .
(that’s why I think focusing on selectivity is stupid, BTW).
@PurpleTitan its not about “backdoors” I was wondering where I could go take other classes, so that I might be able to experience more than one university.
Lot’s of places with consortiums.
Claremont. Some Philly LACs and UPenn.
The one centered around Amherst.
Wellesley-Babson-Olin.
A bunch where schools are adjacent to each other like Pitt-CMU and Harvard-MIT.
And of course, some giant unis feel like multiple colleges in one.
And kids may go visit colleges that are nearby all the time.
Pitt-CMU
HMC-CMC
Run-DMC
HMC-CMC is sort of misleading. Students at any of the 5 colleges in the Claremont consortium can cross register for some classes (and they are super close together, easy to make it without a schedule disruption). The five colleges are Harvey Mudd, Scripps, Pomona, Pitzer, and Claremont McKenna.
Wellesley has cross-registration at Babson, Olin, Brandeis, and MIT. They have a few five year programs where the student receives degrees from both institutions.
I don’t know if they still let you do it, but back in the 80s, students at Berkeley who were majoring in broadcasting or cinema would often take classes at San Francisco State because the broadcasting and cinema department at SF State was much bigger and had more offerings.
St Mary’s in Indiana, with Notre Dame - you can take liberal art classes at St Mary’s and engineering classes at Notre Dame, you get a degree from both.
@MYOS1634 really? thats really cool! is it a 3-2 year program?
Not exactly, more like a combined program where you take classes on both campuses at the same time . You get a Bs from St Mary’s and a bs from Notre Dame.
Students at Tufts can take classes at BU, BC and Brandeis (and vice versa I believe).
Wheaton (the one in Norton, Ma) and Brown. Wheaton was formerly all women.
William & Mary has a 3:2 program, but also a joint degree program with the University of Saint Andrews in Scotland where you can get a dual degree from both universities by spending time on both college campuses. Currently I believe they have degrees in international relations, econ, english, and history, but are working to add more subjects such as classical studies or film and media studies.
William and Mary/VCCS
^^^ Ahhhh yes I almost forgot about that one. If you are into medical schools, you can also apply to the early assurance program where you can get accepted into medical school as early as your sophomore year. Several of my friends just got into the program a couple of weeks ago
