宾大是除哈耶普之外，我最早了解的学校之一。有段时间比较迷郎咸平，所以，知道了有名的沃顿商学院。后来仔细了解，发现宾大诞生了北美第一个医学院和第一所商学院——沃顿商学院，工程学院设计出了世界上第一台全电子数学计算机 “ENIAC”，开创了计算机科学发展的新时代。此外，宾大还有数不清的知名校友，如现任美国总统特朗普、投资家巴菲特、经济学家郎咸平、建筑学家梁思成和林徽因等等。
它有四个学院，除了普通的专业外，宾大很有特色的开启了多个学院合作的双专业。进去了也可以申请。当然如果想minor其他学院的专业也是可以的， 当然沃顿的最热门选课是个难题，不过总有办法解决的。 下面是四个学院的双专业项目：
College of Arts & Sciences
Those programs that include a degree in the College of Arts & Sciences include:
-ISB: The Huntsman Program in International Studies and Business
-LSM: The Roy and Diana Vagelos Program in Life Sciences and Management
-MLS: The Roy and Diana Vagelos Scholars Program in the Molecular Life Sciences
-VIPER: The Roy and Diana Vagelos Integrated Program in Energy Research
-Bio-Dent: Seven Year Bio-Dental Program

Wharton School
Those programs that include a degree in the Wharton School include:
-Huntsman: The Huntsman Program in International Studies and Business
-LSM: The Roy and Diana Vagelos Program in Life Sciences and Management
-M&T: The Jerome Fisher Program in Management and Technology
-NHCM: Nursing and Health Care Management
宾大的教育理念我非常接受，非常棒，不过难申请啊， 尤其是M&T双专业，简直是中国牛蛙追求的目标。我们看看他的数据吧。这是2017年的申请数据：
ED还是很有优势的哦。 下面是宾大的标化数据，光有这些是不够的，宾大比较在意文书，活动和气质，几乎所有申请者都会面试。
所以宾大不能完全算分控，他对各方面的要求都非常的高，需要气质相投的学生。我在文后附了两个录取的学生的详细情况，大家有兴趣仔细研究吧。另外，宾大的官网上也明确写出了需要学生符合哪些气质，强烈建议孩子在申请写小文书的时候仔细阅读，思考吃透后再写。
最后说下宾大的就业。一句话，不用愁了。各个学院出路都不差，学校的handshake网站帮忙找工作， 校友也经常过来做讲座，金融界的人脉更是深到爆，很多投行把Super Day（投行面试最重要的一天）放在宾大。
宾大的夏校其实也很棒，大家可以申请着试试，最后告诉一个妈妈们都喜欢的信息，费城（宾大所在地）买衣服和鞋子是免税的。妈妈们去了可以放心买买买，哈哈哈。
