<p>I'm currently decding between Hamilton and Grinnell, which school has a better econ program? How is it? And how connected to the real world is all classes in general for both Grinnell and Hamilton? Is it possible and easy for a Canadian student to find internships/jobs in the summer? And is it possible to get into really good business schools/find a good job after graduation? Which school would be better considering the above? Thanks! Oh, and any add. info on those two schools would be great!</p>

<p>Hamilton has a really great econ program and places many grads in finance, etc. down in NYC. There is an extensive alumni/student connection program that helps students set up internships, jobs, informational interviews, etc. If you work that you will almost be assured of a good position in NYC. You can also do the semester in NYC program. Hamiltonians love to hire other Hamiltonians because of their known emphasis on writing and public speaking - it's a nice club to be in if you want a job in NYC/Boston, etc.</p>
