Hi - do not see any discussion for Tepper Undergrad recently. My son would be applying and his interests - Computational Finance program/Finance/Business Analytics. He is one of those kids who is gifted in Math but is not in to Eng or Comp science even though he has a 5 in AP Comp Science and is taking Comp Sci dual credit in his senior year. BTW, he has perfect scores in all Math related AP courses and SAT Math tests.
Would appreciate advice/comments from anybody who is currently attending or from a parent whose kid is attending that program or someone who applied recently to this program (found out they increased the number of students admitted). Thank you.
The admission is decided in sophomore year for this highly selective program. They get students from both college of science and business.
I don’t know which school they prefer over other, it is a sticky situation for you, whether to apply to math major or business major. Good luck.
For business anaytics, It think Dietrich has yet another choice of major - I am not 100% sure though. It is very difficult which college to apply to.
Also for sales/trading type jobs, most companies prefer some type of graduate degree.
