I am a high school Senior from near Boston. I want to study creative writing, along with psychology, German, and maybe continuing Spanish. I am also interested in film. I want to study abroad. I have been unable to visit either campus because of COVID and that makes it a lot harder to make a decision. I have narrowed it down to three schools: Oberlin, Bard, and Sarah Lawrence. Bard is the cheapest from the aid I have gotten.

Cons of Bard: not close to a city, lots of academic requirements, lots of weed smokers
Cons of Oberlin: harder to get to from where I live, not an open curriculum
Cons of Sarah Lawrence: boys: girl ratio, fewer options of areas to study, small campus/smaller population

There are more of each but I am not sure at this time.

Does anyone know how flexible the Oberlin curriculum is?
What is each campus like?

What school do you suggest I go to?
