I really enjoy helping students find the right combination of characteristics that will help them achieve their personal, social, and academic goals. However, I really cannot answer your question directly. I would need to know much more about your daughter. I'd need to have her fill out some questionnaires, in addition to looking over transcripts, grade reports, and a host of other information. I don't like getting caught up in what is "best" in a generic sense. My work is founded on finding what is "best" for your daughter. So it could be a simple thing to run some searches by program or major and come up with a list that offer both. But the definition of what is best is very personal, very individualized. And the process of coming up with that definition can be a very fun and illuminating experience for families. I'm not sure this is the answer you were seeking, but I hope you feel comfortable giving me a ring if you think I can be of further assistance. And thanks again for the question. Anne,

She will apply to art institutions, but are there any good ones that also have science programs. If not, what small liberal arts colleges have the best combination of art and science?
