<p>Protest, I remember your posts from earlier. I’m glad you were accepted and I’m glad they met your need on the money issue. When Carleton started not going “need blind” and going “need aware” years ago it was disappointing.</p>
<p>Physics is really strong at Carleton. Do check out the link below:</p>

<p>Math may not be as strong, but is still awfully good. I was a Physics major once upon a time at Carleton and took numerous math courses. I had generally good experiences in the Math dept. They have a place to go for Math help on Calculus that is literally open and well staffed 8am to 5pm or something like that.</p>
<p>One thing to note is that double majoring is not easy or encouraged at Carleton. You must do the comprehensive test or project on both majors. Often doing one your junior year or cramming them both in your senior year. It puts stress on both students and profs.</p>
<p>You’ll get a well rounded education at Carleton. Usually, you can take one liberal arts course along with the Math Science Courses every trimester.</p>
<p>Professors are usually quite accessible. Some non-tenure faculty can get stressed with the teaching and research demands though…they don’t all get tenure. </p>
<p>Any specific questions? Let us know where you end up!</p>
