Help Me Decide: UPenn Wharton (BEPP) vs Harvard (Econ/Gov)

  1. aaah, good to know. Going to Wharton with the mindset of trying to be around mostly CAS students sounds not great in hindsight. I was waitlisted at UChicago, so could potentially send a LOCI to try and get off that, but I think most likely I will be choosing between one of these two schools.

  2. makes sense. :cry:

  3. hey, that’s one big concern out the window then! I’m not sure where I got the impression otherwise, but yay for connections.

I’m definitely more the latter type of student you described than the former, and I think my reasons for considering Penn are more for a few specific opportunities they have rather than the vibe of Wharton as a whole. Thank you for your detailed response, this was very helpful!
