Should I go to Hopkins??????

<p>I got accepted as a transfer to Hopkins. I also got accepted into Emory. I planning to major in business but Hopkins doesnt have a business school so I was thinking an econ major with a business minor. I know emory has a great business school but Hopkins has a better name especially if I want to get a job afer college probably in the northeast but thats not for sure. what should i do?</p>

<p>Hopkins rep is mainly in the sciences and for pre law, not for business.</p>

<p>If you want to get a job in the business area, I'm sure employers will know that Emory is better for it.</p>

<p>Actually, Hopkins does have a business school, the Carey School of Business but it isn't as well-known.</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins recently recieved a $50 million dollar donation from W.P. Carey. The new Carey Business School was established Jan 1st, 2007 and the administration has recently begun a search for a new dean and has hired Dean Dr. Yash Gupta, deputized with elevating the stature of the school to to join the ranks of first tier institutions, e.g. the Wharton School.</p>

<p>In the case of Hopkins of course, it’s the Hopkins brand: Medicine. Public Health. Nursing. APL. Engineering. The sciences. All these incredible programs that reflect the future of our society. That gives Hopkins, the advantage in creating a unique model, because Hopkins schools and units are already generating the kinds of things that are so important for our future.</p>

<p>Go to Hopkins.</p>

<p>Why? Economics program at Johns Hopkins was ranked fourth in the nation by Chronicle.com</p>

<p>The New Carey Business School has a great open facility located in the financial downtown district of Baltimore. One of the key things to know about Hopkin's new business school is that it is different from traditional MBA programs where as it incorporates Hopkin's various strengths in the health professions, sciences, international studies in form of double degree programs with School of Public Health, School of Medicine, SAIS, etc...</p>

<p>Plus, Dean Gupta is tasked turn it into a national powerhouse, equal in stature to the other academic divisions of Johns Hopkins. You can expect nothing less than striving to become on of the best of the best. Great if you can get into program while its beginning to mature.</p>

<p>And if you are interested in whether or not Emory reputation still holds strong in the Northeast, that is very questionable. I've always thought of Emory as a Southern ivy whose reputation holds more dominance in the Sout than Johns Hopkins which is located more Northeast in Maryland.</p>

<p>I've lived in the Northeast all my life in Cambridge,MA next to Harvard and 3 blocks away from MIT. There are just so many great academically powerful schools in my general vincinity and area that Emory's reputation is literally drowned out and is probably unknown to the vast majority of the public in my area and beyond, which is unfortunate though because I've always known Emory to get a great school... That is not to say that Johns Hopkins is any shining star either. However between the two, more people in the North east would generally know of Johns Hopkins far more than Emory, which is predominantly known more in the South than Northeast. Reason is because there are so many Ivy league schools around here, its hard to make yourself really known among so many faces if your from the South.</p>

There are a great amount of awesome business companies that recruit at Hopkins such as Bear Steans, Bloomberg, Bain and Company, Morgan Stanley, Legg Mason, Citigroup, Bank of America, etc....</p>

<p>If you are into business I suggest you go the route I'm currently taking - Economics major, Entrepreneurship & Management minor (an excellent minor). You shouldn't have any problem going into business, employers know that JHU is solid in everything - I got a nice business/economics internship after just one year at JHU.</p>

<p>go to emory... great for business</p>
