CalTech for a kid interested in bio/neuroscience/linguistics?

It might not be a very good match. Caltech requires 5 terms of math and 5 terms of physics for all students. Caltech is not just an engineering school and (I feel) focuses on science and mathematics more. As a result, it has a strong biology department. Linguistics, on the other hand, is entirely absent from Caltech.
