I usually tell them how great it is to be able to set your own curriculum. I am in the bachelor program at The New School for General Studies, and the only requirements are that I take a certain number of liberal arts and non liberal arts credits. The rest is up to me! It's fantastic. It's really important to me to be able to study what interests me, and not be forced to take required classes that I have no interest in whatsoever. The New School really maximizes the college experience.
