<p>If you want something beyond the undergrad level, the financial economics certificate at Northwestern is more advanced than all these undergrad finance. </p>

<p>I believe University of Chicago has something similar for which you take graduate-level courses at Booth.</p>

<p>The only bad thing about those is you can’t apply to them as a HS senior. The one at Northwestern has quite a set of pre-reqs to fulfill. The one at UChicago may be similar.</p>

<p>^You don’t need this kind of pre-reqs for undergrad business anywhere:

<p>To be specific, they are actually the same courses given to MBA. The professors in those courses often teach the courses twice in a given term, one to the undergrads and one to the MBAs and the students write the same exams. Rumors has it the undergrad sections often entail even a bit more math because the profs know the undergrads can handle them; one CC member said one day, they were working on the math proof of Markowitz portfolio theory. Not all MBA candidates, even at Harvard Business School, got the quant training obtained through those pre-reqs.</p>

<p>According to this graduate speech, the undergrads got better exam results than the MBAs.
