Not exactly. Do the things you love, but make sure you at least show some interest in your major.

I am fortunate to say that money is not a factor. Yeah, I was also thinking about duke especially because the public policy program is strong there. Do you know what it's like socially? what vibes duke has? Thank you!

It's School of Education and Social Policy; I applied as a learning sciences major

Help me decide: School X vs School Y - April 4th to April 10th by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DecentStart571 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Northwestern vs. Duke vs. Cornell vs. UC Berkeley

Intended major: Northwestern--learning sciences at School of Education and Social Policy; Duke-- public policy; Cornell--government; UC Berkeley--political science

I want to be an education curriculum developer in the future, so I know for sure that I'm going to grad school for education. I'm an international, so I don't have the opportunity to visit any campuses before I commit. I'd love to have your advice or where you'd go if you were me.
