<p>hey everyone, my question is about penn and wharton. i heard a couple people talking about how applying to wharton and penn are different things??? i also heard about the program (hunting, huntsman???) where u go to penn and wharton at the same time??? im confused because i thought wharton is a school of penn, so if u get into penn, then u automatically get into wharton… but i guess im wrongg… could someone explain???</p>
<p>Wharton is one of the undergraduate schools at Penn. You apply to Penn but on the application you apply to only one of the schools (eg nursing, Wharton, SEAS, College). There are dual degree programs such as the huntsman program where you earn a degree from both the college and Wharton. Their website helps a lot. <a href="http://www.upenn.edu%5B/url%5D">www.upenn.edu</a></p>
<p>When you apply to Penn, you do not apply to the entire University. You apply to the school in which you would like to study. If you apply to the College, then you are allowed to take classes at Wharton, but you are not in Wharton.</p>
<p>"Wharton" is the name of the business school at Penn, and thus it is a part of Penn. Simiarly, "Annenberg" is the name of the journalism/communications school at Penn (except it does not have an undergrad division as does Wharton).</p>
<p>Though Annenberg DOES administer an undergraduate major jointly with the College.</p>
<p>...as does Wharton (dual concentration in Marketing and communications)</p>
<p>heres the problem: Penn is divided in 1. wharton 2. college
but ppl refer to 'college' using 'penn'</p>
<p>The Hunstman program is a combination of wharton and the college (wrongly refered to as 'penn')</p>
