My rising senior is interested in and strong in math. He is not interested in science or engineering but has liked the business and economics classes he has had so far. He has completed AP Calculus (AB) and will take AP Calculus (BC) and AP Statistics next year. We are looking for schools for him in the mid Atlantic and northeast regions that have good math programs as well as options for some type of business major or minor (economics/finance). We prefer schools with less than 10,000 undergrads. I have a number of schools on my list but I’d like others’ opinions on smaller schools with strong math programs. What criteria should I be considering to gauge the strength of a math or applied math program? TIA.
