<p>I am a 3rd year econ major at one of the UC and have a gpa of 4.000/4.000 and I only have three more quarters to go. I haven't take GRE yet though.
Besides GPA, I have a internship, research and etc.</p>
<p>Does anyone know a top graduate school that has a full scholarship for PhD in economics for international student? or even mid-tiers? What will be the requirement?</p>
<p>Every graduate school worth its name offers fellowships and assistantships. You should not undertake a Ph.D program without full funding.</p>
<p>Funding is generally based on a combination of academic performance, GRE scores, research interests and experience. Sounds like you will be a competitive candidate.</p>
<p>Is obtaining Masters in Economics will increase my chance to get into top Econ Ph.D programs???</p>
<p>Make sure to take as many math classes as possible.</p>
<p>You’ll definitely need:</p>
<p>-Multivariable Calc
-Linear Algebra
-Differential Equations
-Real Analysis
-Probability and Statistics</p>
<p>More math will be even better.</p>
<p>If you take all these math classes and do well in them, there will be no need to go into a masters program. There are no reputable masters programs in the US</p>
<p>If you want to drive yourself crazy (but it’s very interesting to see who got in, and where):</p>
