Transfer to Wharton or stay at UVA?

You would think that someone from Wharton would have ingrained in their head the difference between “it’s” and “its”. Perhaps, if you went to Dartmouth or Williams, you would.

<p>Perhaps if YOU went to Dartmouth or Williams, you’d know that you would have to replace “their” with his/her, because “someone” is singular.</p>

<p>OP, go to Wharton. While it may be true that you may find it a little difficult initially to adapt to a new environment, you will eventually adjust. Getting admitted to Wharton as a transfer is quite a feat, and I’m sure you’d do well there academically. </p>

<p>As far as recruiting goes, Wharton trumps UVA. While a few BBs and elite boutiques may recruit at UVA, there are a number of other elite hedge funds/prop shops that DON’T recruit at UVA, such as Citadel, Jane Street, D.E. Shaw etc. I’m not sure what your career goals are, but the access you’ll have in Wharton trumps any marginal benefit you might have at UVA socially.</p>

Now that I actually got in I’m leaning towards the Wharton side because although I like UVA now, down the road I think Wharton will give me more options and need to decide soon. Also, I’m actually out of state, so going to Wharton would be a few thousand cheaper.

<p>This should be enough of a reason for you to go to Penn</p>
