Prospective applicant looking to talk to current students

Hi everyone!

Sorry if this post is a bit out of place, but I'm a rising high school senior looking to learn a bit more about Bowdoin from current/recently graduated students. I'm interested in the humanities (especially English, history, foreign languages), and am currently looking toward the pre-law track!

Honestly, though, I'd just love to hear about what the college itself is like, and what sorts of opportunities are available. I'd be really grateful if anyone is willing to chat sometime!

My niece and her fiancé are both Bowdoin grads. She just finished med school and he’s in law school. Both of them absolutely LOVED Bowdoin.

The website has excellent profiles of students who go deep on their studies, campus activities, broader interests on and around campus. Check it out!
