Hi, everyone. I have received an offer from Penn State with funding (24k) and I am currently on the waitlist of Michigan. If I get off the WL, the funding will be 18k. The problem is that Michigan will remove students from the WL on April 15th and I have to make a choice between these two schools before Michigan sends me an email about my results. My primary interest is in international trade and the secondary is in macro labor and applied game theory. I wrote my master's thesis in these fields, but my interests might change in the future into some other applied micro fields. I know that for trade, Penn State is nearly the top, and it is also very strong in game theory, but in many rankings for overall econ departments, it is ranked lower than Michigan. Michigan also have trade profs like Deardorff and Levchenko, but Deardorff will be 74 when I get PhD. For placements, top students in Penn State sometimes go to top schools, but Michigan seems better for students in the middle. Could you give me some advice about which to choose? Thanks.
