Can I get a BA in Philosophy and go on to get an MBA?

Last year I came into college taking Econ classes, thinking I would be an Econ major. Now I’m starting to think that if I had to pick between Econ and Philosophy, it’d be Philosophy because I recently found I enjoy it a lot. I was thinking of double majoring but I would have almost no room to take electives, and I wanted to keep taking French classes as well. I’m currently a sophomore at a very good LAC. Many History majors from this school go on into finance/business careers, even without grad school. I’m definitely thinking about getting an MBA, I’m just worried about getting a job out of college. I am also considering doing some sort of summer program that equates to a business minor.

Yes, you can. Make sure you know what is on the GMAT though so you can prepare yourself to do well on it.
