<p>If you go to a liberal arts college or christian, etc. college...do you HAVE to take religious classes as apart of your curriculum? Also, say you like everything about a liberal arts college (size, location, etc.) except the whole "liberal arts" theme..does your curriculum have to be the "liberal arts" way?</p>
<p>It depends on the college. I go to a Catholic liberal arts college and we do have requirements. Freshmen year you have to take 4 courses (2 each semester) - Literature and History one term and Religion and Philosophy the other term. Religion isn't just about Catholicism, it's about all different kinds of religion. And then there are other requirements - we have to do a learning community sophomore year (2 courses that get linked together), a moral reasoning course junior year, and then there are other distribution requirements - 1 statistical reasoning, 1 natural science, 1 social science, 2 consecutive semesters of foreign language. </p>
<p>If you don't like the whole "liberal arts" theme than go look at the graduation requirements and see how liberal arts-y your curriculum would have to be. It depends on the school.</p>
<p>It depends on the school. Check the website and the school literature to see how much the school emphasizes its religious affiliation. The school might cater to liberal arts students, in which case the school might say that it is open-minded and welcoming to all denominations (which most of them are to some degree). Or the school might cater to students pursuing religious studies, including theological or seminary studies as part of the degree. Some schools, such as Wheaton, require chapel attendence. </p>
<p>Again, check the school literature.</p>
