<p>I'm currently a sophomore in NYU looking to transfer. I'm majoring in Economics and Math. I've made this list so far, which of these schools if you were to choose have stronger programs for econ and math than NYU (or do all of them hah)?</p>
<p>UPenn
Cornell
UChicago
JHU
Brown
Georgetown
Dartmouth</p>
<p>bump.. any1?????</p>
<p>UChicago is definitely the best for economics out of that list. U chicago is a powerhouse in economics, but all those schools are obviously not bad at all so you really can't go wrong with any of them. I don't know about the math departments, but I wouldn't dread over those choices, they are all extremely good and prestigious</p>
<p>I think NYU's math program is exceptionally strong - or at least that's what I hear. Econ will be, without a doubt, best at UChicago. I'd make sure that's the atmosphere you want, but UChicago will probably be best for your interests.</p>
<p>J/w...why are you transferring, as I am applying to transfer into NYU as an Economics-Mathematics and Philosophy double major?</p>
<p>it most definitely is. i don't dislike nyu completely. there are things that i wish were different but there are things like that at every school. the only things i dont like are the school's resources are heavily concentrated on stern and tisch with no real attention to any other dept. the school's class buildings for CAS are also not very impressive. not to mention living in the city takes its toll on you financially and socially. but of course the library is beautiful, its a great school and its in nyc so the opportunities are endless. how much you will enjoy the school really is just based upon how much you can handle the stress and atmosphere like anywhere else. i really only want to transfer to see if i can get into a better school. if not, no biggie i have a pretty good deal where i am =)</p>
<p>brand_182- make sure you will have enough time to do both of those majors because i highly doubt u will. majoring in econ and math leaves almost no spots for electives let alone another major but call the school, see what you can find out. gl!</p>
<p>well that's good to hear.</p>
<p>I was actually interested in the Economics-Mathematics major, which I'm hoping is similar to Wesleyan's Econ-Math major and gives considerably equal attention to each aspect. My second major (or minor) would be Philosophy, and if I were able to study those subjects, I wouldn't have much of a desire to take other electives.</p>
