My daughter has been accepted at both and likes both. Having trouble deciding. She plans to major in international studies with double major (or perhaps minor) in Mandarin. It has been easy to find info on both schools’ IS/IR programs, however we haven’t found much about Mandarin. Anyone out there with experience specifically in Mandarin at either university?
For some information, this site listing top Mandarin programs includes Vassar:
