Agribusiness vs Business

<p>How similar are the ag business classes to the regular business classes? Are the flow charts pretty much the same with a few ag classes in their? Also if I wanted to switch to a different business major, would it be easier than chaning from something like soil science to business?</p>

<p>Hope this helps. You will probably need the third link above to know what the courses are that are listed on the flowcharts.</p>

<p>Some courses may over lap making the transition easier. However, business is one of the harder majors to transfer into</p>

<p>I wonder if it is any easier switching into business from ag business considering that they are the both the same and one just has a specific emphasis. Does anyone know someone who has switched in the college of business?</p>

<p>This link gives the requirements to change into the Business Administration major. I think changing into business from any major is doable, but I think it is also very competitive. I think changing from Ag Business would be no easier or harder than from any other major. I would guess the biggest barrier to changing into Business would be the competition. Many more want to change into business, than they can accommodate, and “The application process is a fair process by which available spaces are filled by the most qualified students.”</p>

<p>It says they take people who believe will thrive in their department. So if one does well in agribusiness, wouldn’t they believe that person could succeed in regular business?</p>
