@ucbalumnus a bachelor of science degree has more courses specific to my major (psychology) and also additional science courses, which is important since i’m planning to study psychology in grad school as well. a bachelor of arts degree has more courses focused on the humanities, which i don’t need
@privatebanker i liked boston college, but i’ve heard it’s has mandatory theology courses, which i’m not really interested in taking. and it’s not a liberal arts school
@merc81 thanks for the info! i’ve seen b.s. degrees offered at some liberal arts colleges for other science fields though, i’m just not sure if psychology is also an option? but i’m definitely looking into those types of research programs so i’ll keep that all in mind! one of the reasons why i’m leaning towards liberal arts is bc of the focus on undergrad and more opportunities for first-year research, but i also really want a b.s.
it’s difficult to find a way to compromise
