<p>@hzhao2004: What is your and your daughter’s reasoning towards choosing Wellesley? Are you accepting the spot on the Northwestern wait list? Northwestern also has a FABULOUS Economics department… But either way, congrats to her for getting in :)</p>
<p>^on a side note, I know someone who went to Wellesley for undergrad econ and grad at mit and is now very successful.
Again it is all about the right fit - NW vs Wellesley.</p>
<p>I think she will go to Wellesley. She is very happy about it. She did some research and found out that the teaching quality is very high there. And I checked the econ department there, the faculty is superb.</p>
<p>fall2016parent, that’s indeed very encouraging. And we like the Boston area precisely because there are so many great colleges there.</p>
