| Linguistics at Harvard
I am wondering what the Linguistics program is like at Harvard. I have to say that I'm pretty much just determined to go to Harvard because of the brand name. I can admit that. But I do want to know what the Linguistics program is like, since that is my current degree concentration of choice.
I am also very nervous that I won't get in, already. And I still have two or three years (I'm planning on doing a year exchange to Japan the year after Grade 12). Until now, I thought I wanted to study neurobiology. But my recent exchange to France has convinced me I wanted to study Linguistics and foreign languages. I know that being multilingual is not a necessity for studying Linguistics, but I still want to be at least trilingual when I apply. Are exchanges considered as good ECs?
Anyone with anything to say would be greatly appreciated. |
