I always see posts praising the opportunities that STRIDE scholars receive–and while that’s great and all, I didn’t get one. So do non-STRIDE students receive the same opportunities and in general the professor connections, or would I be better off at Bryn Mawr, where all students receive equal opportunities? Also, while I love science I don’t have any interest in majoring in it. Are Smith’s programs in French, anthropology, and poly sic (well, nevermind, I know their gov program is fantastic) good? I’m particularly interested in the first two, especially knowing that Bryn Mawr excels in those areas. Smith’s larger size/course selection appeals to me, though.
