wharton vs. stern

<p>the head of barclays capital came down to penn and told us (this isn’t verbatim, since it was a year ago):</p>

<p>“when we start recruiting, we come to the university of pennsylvania first”</p>

<p>@necrophiliac: what do you mean quantity over quality??</p>

<p>it’s a gigantic school with state funding. McIntire program releases 655 kids vs. the 544 admitted to Wharton this year (assume everyone finishes). That’s over 20% more student body in the business program.</p>

<p>but overall wharton is a larger school than mcintire with over 2,000 students so the “quantity vs quality” statement isn’t really valid… and if anything state funding is more limiting and I dont think the size of the campus really has much to do with anything</p>

<p>keep in mind mcintire is only a 2 year deal whereas wharton is all 4 UG years</p>
