Choosing a major for Entrepreneur!

<p>I wanna start my own business, which school i should go?
The following school admitted me. (USC dun know yet, but I think I could get in) </p>

<p>UCI econ, UCLA business econ, UCB econ, or USC business admin</p>

<p>I personally do not think econ is a good major, and I would like to study business admin.
However, UCB and UCLA are really good school. It is a tough decision. Please help me out and give me some comment as well. Thanks</p>

<p>Frankly, it would depend on your business idea. If you want to be an editor, you should major in technical writing. If you want to open an accounting firm, major in accounting. I think you get the message.</p>

<p>If you have no business concept yet, I would major in either accounting with a minor in marketing or major in marketing with a minor in accounting. Both a useful for business. However, if you become good at marketing and selling ( which are two different concepts), you can be successful at anything.</p>

<p>I have learned from another well-known writing that I know ( who incidentally has crappy financial books) that if the marketing is good enough, people will buy any crap. In fact, most of his books are commercials for his other books!</p>

<p>I don't agree that products should be "crap," but that was his philosophy, and he is probably the most successful financial writer in America. If you become good at marketing, it will greatly augment your chances of success in any business venture.</p>

Are you talking about Rob Kiyosaki? Yea I liked his first book and I read through a couple others, but they are like commercials for his other ones. Btw, I'm from Rockville ;)</p>

<p>leo187um, I can neither confirm or deny your guess. I don't like to mention names because of the possiblity of libel.</p>

<p>Also I am from Rockville. Did you attend or do you attend Wootton?</p>

<p>Go to a school to become an entreprenuer...?</p>

<p>Some of the best entreprenuers didn't attend or either dropped out of college. Otherwise, I would say take accounting if you want to start your own business.</p>

<p>Babson College in MA offers an entreprenurial studies major</p>
