Another thing you might want to do if you want to stay away from peer pressure to use drugs is to request single-sex housing, if they have it. The students in those dorms are often a little better behaved than the students in the coed dorms.

And what course would you want to take that Whitman doesn’t offer? A lot of the small, prestigious liberal arts colleges like Whitman have fewer majors than the slightly less prestigious schools, but not necessarily fewer courses offered. They also shy away from the most “preprofessional” degrees, but if you want to do business, you can do economics instead, and if you want journalism, you can do English instead, and if you want engineering, they have 3/2 programs set up with top engineering schools.

Strengthen your confidence.That’s what matters!!

Don’t let something so trivial, distant you from your goal.

It maybe better said than done,you’d say.

But you’ll cope.
