<p>So, I'm applying to schools pretty soon. I would like to do ED, which means I have to have a pretty idea what my top choice is soon. Right now, I'm leaning towards WashU. I have a 4.15 currently, and am planning on finishing high school with a 4.28. I have a 31 on the ACT (32 if superscored). I'm planning on majoring in English and maybe Biochemistry. My question is whether I Middlebury, Kenyon, or WashU would be the best school for a double major like this. Thanks!</p>
<p>They’re all good schools, and I’m sure a double major at any will be fine. Obviously I’m a bit biased toward WashU, double majors are fairly common, and there aren’t that many general distribution requirements to needlessly complicate your schedule.</p>
<p>I do think it comes down to if you would prefer the environment of a LAC in a more rural setting or a research university near a larger city.</p>
<p>All all three schools are great schools, and I really can’t tell you which school would be better to do a double major at. I am also like Ryan, as I have an inherent bias, as my son is starting at WUSTL next week in 2 weeks. The main academic difference between WUSTL and Kenyon/Middlebury is that WUSTL will likely have more opportunities to get engaged in science research.</p>
<p>The key issue at this point is really going to be what sort of environment you want to be in. WUSTL is in a more urban setting, whereas the other two schools are in smaller towns.</p>
<p>Good luck on your search.</p>
