| For economics and political science, Uchicago and CMC are a step ahead of Carleton. Uchicago is more intellectual than CMC (versus the practicality of an education at CMC), with its economics department being slightly more respected. The political science department at CMC is better than the one at Uchicago.
In terms of nonacademics, the two schools are very different. Consider the size of the student body, the presence of grad students, the weather, etc. |
