<p>assuming that the programs/courses/profs were COMEPLTELY identical between NW, Wiscon. and NYU…</p>
<p>NYU still wins. why? firstly:
location, location, location. typically an econ major is gonna work in an urban/corporate environment. NYC is the financial center of the world. NYU will give him/her a better feel for what he/she is getting into.</p>
<p>AND: lets not forget internships! NYU has a widespread notoriety for their internships, no matter the field. I cant imagine NYU falling short for an econ major. it just cant happen (where else in the world can you just as easily intern for a broadway production company and Merril-Lynch?)</p>
<p>If money TRUELY is no object, i’d be hard pressed to dissuade my child from attending NYU as an economics major.</p>
