@OHMomof2 – there’s a poster here, b@ri!um, who posts on the international forum, who cautions that many LACs don’t offer the large selection of upper division math courses desired by the top graduate programs. She went to Bryn Mawr (and then to Stanford, so she’s no slouch) and felt the course selection was limiting even at this elite LAC. She feels students who want to major in math with the idea of going onto PhD programs would be better served academically by large universities.
