In this section, we are going to focus on being a competitive applicant for top Economics PhD programs. We want our very best undergraduates to have a chance to get into these highly competitive programs right after completing an undergraduate degree. Preparing for graduate school in Economics can often be a confusing process for students. The goal of this webpage is to illuminate this process and clarify what is required to be a competitive applicant. While we emphasize the importance of taking difficult mathematics courses, in general, as you choose less selective Economics PhD programs, you can take fewer upper division mathematics classes and still be a competitive applicant.
