<p>So I was just admitted to Michigan last Friday which I am absolutely pumped about. However I still plan on going through with the RD process for a number of schools.</p>
<p>Here are the schools that I have applied to/will be applying to and still waiting on decision notification:
NYU Stern
Georgetown McDonough
UCLA
UC Berkeley
WashU Olin
USC Marshall
Emory
BC Carroll</p>
<p>As you can pretty much tell I'm planning on pursuing Business and/or Economics. While Ross obviously trumps many of the other programs I'm applying to, I'll have to apply after my freshman year and there is no guarantee that I will get in (I applied preferred-admit, which is ridiculously competitive from what I heard). Assuming that Ross is not a guarantee for me, how does UMich Econ stack up against these other schools in terms of academic quality, recruiting, and reputation?</p>
