Econ Department

<p>How is Ursinus's econ department compared to other schools. Atm i am accepted to American, Ursinus, Drew, and St. Mary's. Any comparisons, opinions or experiences that will help me choose the best school for an econ major.</p>

<p>If it helps, St Mary's gave my 8,000 in grant money, Ursinus gave me 26,000, Drew gave me 17,000, and American gave me loans.</p>

<p>Also, how does Ursinus do in getting kids into PhD programs and business schools.</p>

<p>Is the econ(and business) department so bad that no one wants to respond?</p>

<p>Hi just askking,</p>

<p>The econ (and business) department is pretty strong. “Business and Econ” is one of the most popular majors at Ursinus. I don’t know how Ursinus fairs in regards to getting grads into business school and phd programs but I do know that the program is fairly rigorous. Hope I helped! :)</p>

<p>Ursinus’ Econ Major is called Business and Economics and it is very much business-oriented rather than focusing on policy or macroecon.</p>

<p>The contact I have had with them has been good, if you visit look to talk to Prof. Mudd.</p>
