Yes she was; she received a classic education of "proper Victorian young lady" of her era, including domestic classes (with bot her mother (who was educated woman), and the governor) and some school education - although the family moved frequently, so she was forced to change schools not once. Between those schools were Hyde Park High School in Chicago and junior college at Ogontz School in Rydal, Pennsylvania. She was specially interested and successful in natural science (math, physics, chemistry) and history. She also knew 4 foreign languages. By 1919 Earhart prepared to enter Smith College but changed her mind and enrolled at Columbia University to take a course in medicine. She quit a year later to be with her parents who had reunited in California. Later in her life (1924) she re-enrolled at Columbia again, to continue her education; however the lack of the family finances forced her to quit again in 1925; because of this lack of funds she was also forced to abandon her dream about MIT.
