@tk21769 I’ve been accepted to Oberlin and CC, and Reed is supposed to mail their acceptances today, still waiting though I’m pretty sure I can get in. Academics wise, I don’t like how Reed isn’t flexible as much as most lib arts colleges nor how everyone has to do a thesis, at CC or Oberlin you can be nominated or choose to do an honors option I believe, and that system works better for me. Although I’m impressed by how Reed graduates do in terms of graduate school enrollment, I don’t really know if the conference style is for me, now that I think of it. FA isn’t that big of a problem, I have savings that will pretty much cover me for undergrad, and since I get a bunch of IB credits I’m pretty sure I can graduate a year early depending on the institutions’ requirements. I’m also quite interested in environmental sciences, but I haven’t really been immersed in it yet, so you’ll never know.
