Is UWash for me?

Hey all, I am considering transfering to UWash. I went to Swarthmore College last year and although I loved the academics, I am looking to be closer to home (CA) and in a place with more laid-back people who aren’t so absorbed with their acadmic life.

I like the small atmosphere of liberal arts - will the UWash honors program help me find that?

I am interested in two very different areas - cognitive science and epidemiology. I was thinking of focusing on cognitive science in undergrad (something like neurobio) and then go onto do graduate work in epidemiology. Can UWash provide that for me?

How hard is it to transfer to UWash?

Any advice is gladly appriciated.

Am I crazy for giving up a top 5 LAC for UWash? Many seem to think so…
