<p>I've been accepted to the undergraduate program at both Stanford and Wharton and was looking for some advice about which to choose. I figure there is no "wrong" choice as they are both great places to study and I am honoured to even consider this. </p>
<p>I would like to study economics/business and work in banking after graduation. I am wondering which school is more highly respected or would lead to a better career, and which could get me a higher salary. (In practical terms). I am an international but would like to remain in the US so this is quite important, unfortunately. </p>
<p>For my more personal considerations - I'm also a fairly laid back guy so I'm wondering what kind of environment there is at these schools. Is one considerably more social than the other? Are people friendly? Etc.</p>
<p>In terms of global prestige (I would eventually like to work abroad, in Asia/the Middle East) which school do you guys think has a better image?</p>
<p>For the future and my career - is it better to the BSE at Wharton or major in Economics from Stanford then try to do an MBA later on? </p>
<p>Lastly, I was wondering if rejecting Wharton/Stanford would mean that it would possibly be harder to then get accepted there for an MBA program. </p>
<p>I would appreciate any advice and help from you guys and have cross posted this thread to both university subforums. </p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
