Wooster vs. Beloit Anthropology

<p>I'm fairly certain that I'd like to major in anthropology, and I've been accepted at both schools, though Wooster gave me more $ in merit aid haha. How would you compare their anthro departments? Beloit has more faculty and they're supposed to give the undergrad coverage in all subfields, which is what I'm looking for. A few of Wooster's courses are mixed with sociology.</p>

<p>I don’t know anything about Wooster, but Beloit is crazy good for anthropology.</p>

<p>You might be able to go into a little more depth at Beloit but if you have other reasons to go to Wooster, it shouldn’t be a crippling difference. You should probably take a look at actual class schedules and maybe even contact some profs in each department.</p>

<p>Grinnell’s anthro is good, too? I applied there and I’d love to get in, but I don’t think I will.</p>

<p>^Yes, Grinnell is another one that I would say is crazy good for Anth. Beloit might be a bit better (from what I gather, Beloit and Bryn Mawr are the best anth schools period), but Grinnell is still definitely near the top of the list as well.</p>
