<p>I love the Ethics, Politics, Economics major. It reminds me of Oxford's Politics, Philosophy, Economics major.</p>
<p>Perhaps it is modeled after it?</p>
<p>I too am transfixed by it. It just sounds so ... delectable. :)</p>
<p>I'm actually probably going to do this. However the only problems:</p>
<p>1) YOU MUST APPLY FOR THE MAJOR. Which means freshman year is going to be that much more difficult. (Ugh, I was hoping on having a bit more fun... but alas, the pressure is on.)</p>
<p>2) It's going to be a bit difficult to work in a double major :(</p>
<p>But yes, it does sound "delectable" and I'm so happy that I get the opportunity to at least <em>attempt</em> at majoring in it. yayay yale!</p>
<p>The first time I read about this major, it sounded like exactly what I wanted to study...so I geuss I'll have to keep the GPA high freshman year. There is a Politics, Philosophy and Economics major at Penn's CAS, I wonder if they modeled it after Oxford too. The concept of the major is a really good idea.</p>
<p>I applied for this major early and was rejected. Just wondering, did choosing the major have any effect on my decision? I kind of just picked it b/c it sounded cool, but I didn't know if it was competitive to get into or what.</p>
<p>^ I highly doubt that it did. Primarily because ivies don't really care about your major when you're applying (they know how capricious the interests of 17 year old kids can be), but then also because EPE has a separate application process that occurs at the beginning of sophomore year. Yes it is competitive to get into, but the competition doesn't even start until AFTER you're enrolled.</p>
<p>I was thinking PoliSci, but this major is starting to sound like something I would enjoy...something more practical than just theoretical...</p>
<p>EPE is the major i'm applying to in RD- hope it doesn't hurt my chances cuz i'm borderline anyway- i like that it's more than just the Econ major that other ivies offer</p>
<p>My goal is to attend law school after undergrad and then proceed into politics. To be honest, after talking with former PoliSci students, PoliSci prepares you for a desk job. The EPE sounds like it would prepare me for the most important facets of political office: Ethics, Public Policy, and Economics. </p>
<p>Does anyone know what the selection process is for the EPE major?</p>
