<p>I guess I was looking at UPenn though I am largely undecided about where I want to go. However, I know that I can't get into Wharton, so I'm going to shoot for CS in UPenn engineering even though it is #17 in CS.</p>
<p>But ultimately, do you think it's harder for me to get into UPenn just because it's UPenn, or would it be not as difficult because I'm going to one of it's schools that isn't as prestigious and sought after?</p>
<p>(I'm shooting for cs because basically everything I can put on my resume would be geared towards cs, whether I want it that way or not =\ )</p>
<p>Also, just as a side question, do you think it would be beneficial to major in UPenn CS and then minor in Wharton, or just shoot for a better CS school like CMU?</p>
<p>I am confused. Do you want to major in Business or CS? I would say that if you want to major in business find a school that is likely to admit you that has a good business program. There is nothing magic about UPENN that would justify studying CS just so you could get in there.</p>
<p>Sorry for the confusion
I’m pretty good at cs, so I’d most likely major in that, but finance also piques my interest, so I’m planning to minor in that.</p>
<p>If you’re applying for CS, you’re applying to the School of Engineering. You compete with people applying to that school.</p>
<p>Wharton really skews UPenn’s acceptance rate. The acceptance rate for the School of Engineering is obviously much higher than Wharton, and likely higher than Arts&Science as well. </p>
<p>Wharton is 7% and UPenn overall is 12%; I wouldn’t be surprised if the engineering school was as high as 17%.</p>
