More than one applicant from same undergrad institution

[userr]

Hi there! I am doing my undergrad at a top 5 school in the US, and will be applying to econ grad school in the US in the coming year. I was wondering if econ grad programs generally have any tendency to hesitate to accept more than one applicant from the same undergraduate institution?

 

Many thanks for any comments!

I can only really speak from a Masters program perspective. Two of my fellow students and I were accepted into UT's program. I don't really think that schools limit the number of students they accept from each undergrad institution. If you have similar letter writers though, they may rank you in the letter and that may effect who gets in.
