Ah, okay! I'm still in the process of figuring out programs but haven't spend enough time looking at the admissions pages, so I totally missed the econ requirements listed on most of them. I'll plan on taking some classes then!
Out of curiosity: how important are quant courses for admissions and aid to MA IR/IS programs? I'm a recent graduate working for a few years before applying to programs, so I was wondering if it was worth biting the financial bullet and enrolling in some online econ courses since I have no quantitative-related experience to speak of.
