You definitely don’t need to be a prospective engineer to come to MIT – as cellardwellar noted, MIT is outstanding in math and science the same way it’s outstanding for engineering, and the management program is excellent, too.

My only warning is that you need to be pretty comfortable with being an engineer, scientist, or businessperson to seriously consider MIT – although humanities and social science majors exist at MIT, and many of them are quite strong (economics, political science, linguistics, philosophy), students who are truly undecided on a general major field can be very unhappy if they get to MIT and decide that science and engineering aren’t for them.
