Economics?

<p>How is the Economics undergraduate program at Johns Hopkins and is it worth applying to?</p>

<p>You apply to the university, not the program. It’s a small faculty but one of the more popular majors. What are you hoping to get out of the program? I just graduated and am now doing a PhD in economics so it worked out pretty well for me.</p>

<p>As a recent graduate YanksDolphins will be a great resource for your specific questions you have beyond how the program is ranked. Also, if you do a quick search of threads on this subforum of college confidential you will find a ton of previous discussions about economics at Hopkins.</p>

<p>I would also suggest do your own research by visiting the department page: [JHU</a> Department of Economics : Undergraduate Program](<a href=“http://www.econ.jhu.edu/undergrad-prog.html]JHU”>http://www.econ.jhu.edu/undergrad-prog.html)
or by checking out the Academics Blog entry about Economics:
[Academics</a> Blog Economics](<a href=“http://blogs.hopkins-interactive.com/academics/category/economics/]Academics”>http://blogs.hopkins-interactive.com/academics/category/economics/)</p>

<p>And finally, you can ask Hopkins Interactive students who are current Econ majors:</p>
