<p>Princeton doesn’t offer an undergrad finance degree, only a certificate.</p>

<p>[“Financial</a> Analyst”](<a href=“http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Business-and-Financial/Financial-analysts.htm]"Financial”>http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Business-and-Financial/Financial-analysts.htm) can mean a number of different things. For Wall Street, you would want to attend an elite school and major in a quantitative subject. For many other financial analyst positions, you could do well with a finance or accounting major from a good state flagship university.</p>
