<p>I know it is generally very hard to transfer to Wharton from the college, but I was wondering, would a Wharton Student be able to take classes at the Penn College?</p>
<p>I want to go into business but I was also thinking of taking some political science classes at the college and maybe getting another degree (maybe a minor) because I might want to go into law school as well. (Just keeping my options open!)</p>
<p>Is this possible? Is it common? Is it hard?</p>
<p>Input is appreciated!</p>
<p>This is absolutely possible, and very common. The university encourages this</p>
<p>It's not actually possible to graudate from Wharton w/o taking classes from the college, seeing as to how you need 1 year of foreign lang, some math and econ... there's some libarts as a requirement, etc.</p>
<p>taking 37 credits of finance acct and mgmt would probably drive most teenagers and 20somethings mad.</p>
<p>Thanks you guys!</p>
<p>Is it possible to get a degree in Business from Wharton and a degree in International Relations from the college? (Different from Huntsman which is IS...)</p>
<p>Yes it is bioniCS.</p>
<p>Would it take longer than usual?</p>
<p>depends on how many pure electives you wanna take.</p>
<p>bioniCS: I considered doing that but have now decided to go a different route. Wharton + IR seems to be one of the most popular dual degree combos out there. It is definitely doable. Depending on how much AP or IB credit you have you can do it in 4 years...if not then you will probably just have to do one summer session. The thing with IR and Wharton is that many of wharton's classes double count with IR such as multinational corporate management, international finance, etc. any class that says international, multinational, etc. double counts with IR.</p>
<p>Hm sounds good... I was strongly considering Huntsman for the longest time and managed to gloss over the fact that it is IS and not IR. When you say that a lot of the courses double count--that's a good thing, right? Does that mean mean that the curriculum blends at least a little bit?</p>
<p>Sorry to be a bother... but what AP credits would help me get ahead?</p>
<p>yeah double counting is awesome. Essentially what that means is that say you have a requirement in wharton for a management class and you have one IR politics requirement then you can take "Politcs of Multinational Firms" and it will count for your finance and IR requirements. So you take 1 class instead of 2. </p>
<p>Good APs to have in order to reduce courseload:
-Calc BC
-Stats
-Micro & Macro Economics
-Any history (european, american, world, etc.)
-Foreign languages
-Sciences (for the general reqs)</p>
<p>if you had all of the above you could potentially reduce your course load by 2-3 semesters and be able to do a dual degree easily with courses to spare for maybe a second wharton concentration or a college/engineering/nursing minor.</p>
