How good is Stanford's undergrad in Economics/Political Science?

Hi! I was admitted through the RD program and I am still floored by actually getting in. I’ve been hearing a lot of mixed reviews about Stanford’s undergrad and so wanted to ask you guys how it really is compared to other top schools. I’m looking to double major in Economics and Political Science (or history, since I LOVE history), and (maybe) apply to Law/Business School after undergrad. So, how is the quality of education? Would a degree from Stanford be worth a lot when applying to grad schools after undergrad? I also know that it does not just depend on the degree but also research opportunities and internships and the like. So how are the opportunities and networking?

Thanks!

Yes Stanford is very well-regarded in these ( and many other) fields.

Hi! Sorry to bump an old post, but did you end up liking the opportunities at Stanford for econ/poli sci? You sound exactly like me (I also want to major in econ/poli sci, love history, and want to go to law or business school after undergrad.)

Also, do you mind sharing your stats? I’m deciding whether to apply for EA or RD.

Thanks!
