<p>Your name is "pennfan." Clearly you want to go to Penn. And no, a letter of recommendation from someone who went to DARTMOUTH would not help at PRINCETON.</p>

<p>Pennfan, here are some links to help answer your questions about the ORFE program. In conjunction with the Bendheim Center in Finance at Princeton, the ORFE program would offer you a great preparation for Wall Street if that is your final goal. </p>

<p>The Wharton School at Penn is a program to which you should also apply and easily has the biggest name within the Ivies for undergraduate business preparation. (I suspect you already know this given your screen name!) Princeton’s ORFE program should not, however, be overlooked.</p>
