<p>I don’t believe that’s true, at all. I’m a student in Huntsman right now and I can say that I have had ample opportunities to take other courses. I’m actually pursuing a minor in nutrition and work for the school newspaper because I think that I may like to work for an international food organization or in journalism at some point in the future. I’ve taken a class on the Iliad and one on the Spanish Empire (just for fun). I have friends who are minoring in math, picking up a double major in econ a few who are minoring in psychology, and even one who is minoring in East Asian studies (her target is Arabic, btws). So you really can pursue any course you want.</p>
<p>I also would say that the business training at Wharton is absolutely phenomenal and would prepare you for running a non-profit with a technical background like none other. I actually worked for a nonprofit in Mexico this past semester and even after my freshman year some of my course material was particularly useful. </p>
<p>I probably wouldn’t have applied early decision to Penn if it weren’t for the program. The best thing about the program is easily the community (something that can’t be replicated with a individualized major). The type of people (like-minded, intelligent and just super interesting) is something that makes the program (imo) the best experience imagineable.</p>
