<p>70% of Americans major in non-business related fields. Unless 70% of Americans are unemployed, I'd say it is possible to major in a subject other than business and still land a job.</p>
<p>I wasn't talking about flipping burgers either! LOL Seriously, you guys should truly use the internet. It is your generation afterall. Companies have profiles of their employees online. You can check where the typical employee went to school and what she/he majored in. But for now, I will say that "business" positions at top companies are just as likely to hire a top student majoring in Math, Econ or English as they are to hire a top Business student. Companies want talent, regardless of major.</p>
<p>Just look at the list. Cornell is not on it, so it means they have a Business program for undergrads. Brown is on the list, so they don't offer Business to undergrads (or graduate students for that matter).</p>
<p>Oh I didn't realize Cornell had a Business program for undergrads. And I saw Brown on the list, moreso I was asking how would those two colleges be for a prospective business student. Those are the two schools which I'm probably most interested in, and I don't know what I'm planning to major in, but I'm leaning towards business. I was interested in how Brown compares in terms of future business oppurtunities to the other schools on the list. (not colleges like Harvard or Yale ;))</p>
<p>Choice of major has little, if anything to do with business opportunities. Personal development, initiative, intellectual horsepower, networking, GPA and planning are all more important when looking for a career opportunity than major. </p>
<p>If you go to Brown, you obviously cannot major in Business. However, Brown has a strong Applied Math department, a decent Econ program and a very respected liberal arts education. Top companies of all sorts will come on campus to recruit young talent.</p>
<p>Emory is very solid. Not in the same league as Haas, McIntire, Ross, Sloan, Stern, Tepper or Wharton mind you, but certainly one of the top 25 undergraduate Business schools.</p>
<p>Thanks, my friend is trying to decide between just emory and UMD and i told him he would be crazy to go to UMD over a school like emory. I don't even think money is an issue for his family but 20,000 is 20,000.</p>
<p>Well, UMD and Emory have roughly equal B schools. Emory is probably a little better when ot comes to networking, but but of those programs are highly regarded. If money isn't an issue, I would probably pick Emory, but that's just one man's opinion.</p>
<p>I'm still nervous about going to CAS and not Wharton this Fall...</p>
<p>I know that everyone says that CAS kids are also well-recruited by top MC/IB firms, but everytime I check out the student surveys, it seems as if most of those CAS kids are doing a dual-degree with Wharton...</p>
<p>And a couple IBs even specify that they recruit at Wharton, not actually mentioning "University of Pennsylvania" (Lazard, for one).</p>
