I thought the OP asked about Wharton vs. Harvard Econ, rather than Penn Econ vs. Harvard Econ. Penn Econ is still a top 10 program, and certainly can hold its own. Harvard econ may have a few more “elite” scholars, but that doesn’t make the undergraduate that much better.

People who go to Wharton can still double major with the college (or Nursing or Engineering). The Wharton requirements are more flexible than those of SEAS, at least.
