<p>What are top liberal art colleges for international relations ( already know the publics/privates)? One which have a high percentage of students being admitted into top graduate schools may be a example, internships in Washington D.C etc...</p>
<p>I'm sure this question have been ask before, as multiple questions that has been asked on this forum.</p>
<p>Bowdoin College has an extremely good government/political science department in which you have the option of doing a concentration in international relations.</p>
<p>I do like big ten universites, which is why I have many on my list such as:
Michigan State University, University of Michigan- Ann Arbor, University of Wisconsin- Madison, Universityh of Minnesota- Twin Cities, University of Iowa- Iowa City, while only privates/ publics are Kalamazoo College ( maybe), George Washington University. I’am likely to add more universities to my list, such as a private/ public( one generous with FA)… though recently had to slide off ( which I didn’t want to, such as PSU-UP, but I guess it was going to happen if I got accepted and seen I couldn’t possibly afford the school) most of the other big ten universities since they are not generous for need base financial aid, and I just wouldn’t be able to afford the school if accepted. Though with my understanding, liberal art colleges are generous with FA, and was wondering which ones excell in my major.</p>
<p>Also, my experience with the city local health system isn’t great at all, and now anywhere out of this citty sounds just about great… including LACs</p>
<p>Goucher has an excellent International Scholars Program (can be combined with any major, including, of course, International Relations). In addition, the global focus/philosophy of the school complements the major with very interesting guest lecturers and speakers.Take a look on line about the $ and other perks.</p>
<p>I had a few friends at Colgate who majored in IR that went on to become professors. Colgate has an off-campus study group in Wash DC that I think combines classes with an internship that it sounds like you may be interested in.</p>
<p>Thanks for suggestions ( still looking into them all), though I’m suspecious with Goucher. I thought if LACS, privates and publics would all be ranked together, Goucher wouldn’t even make it under the USNEWS ranking ( like 1. Harvard, 2. Yale, etc…) and would just only be listed.</p>
<p>Claremont McKenna and Pomona have excellent programs. Pomona students consistently win a very high number of Fullbright awards; the year before last they won the 3rd most of all schools in the US, and by far and away the most per capita. Claremont McKenna has a Semester in Washington program (which Pomona students can take advantage of as well).</p>
<p>In the four years 2004–07, Smith College produced 62 student Fulbright Fellows (84 in the seven years 2001–07), the most among colleges nationwide.</p>
<p>Looked into most LACs suggested, and seems very difficult to get admitted. I recently just removed Kalamazoo College from my potential list, so right now I have absolutely no LACs.</p>
<p>Maybe Knox (Abe Lincoln’s alma mater), Kenyon, Wooster, DePauw (Dan Quayle’s alma mater, but that’s not saying much…) Ohio Wesleyan, Denison, or Beloit?</p>
<p>Also think you should just go to U of M because it is the best in the midwest for political science and you got in-state tuition, which is something I wish that I had so I wouldn’t have to sell a kidney to go there!!! (jk)</p>
<p>Yeah I have high interest in University of Michigan- Ann Arbor, but just like most universities I’ve mention ( MSU, UW-Madison etc…) it’s very difficult to get accepted.</p>
<p>Who it was that said that Abe Lincoln went to Knox college is wrong. The only secondary education he ever got was from a lawyer whom he studied with in order to prepare for his bar exam.</p>
