<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>I was admitted for Statistics at CMU along with offers for the SHS and QSSS programs, I am thinking about accepting the offer for the QSSS program and majoring in Economics and Statistics (BS) instead of just Stats. If I was accepted into the DHS for Stats, but didn't get in to Tepper, can I still major in Econ and Stats which is a major that spans across both departments?</p>

<p>On another note, how does the Economics and Statistics major stack up with other colleges across the country? I know CMU is ranked 9th in Stats and 15th in economics, but how does their Economics and Statistics major that spans across Dietrich and Tepper stack up?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
