<p>"A2W....based upon their words on the students' page, I don't think they'll be offerring sports management as a discrete major, but I do think one may be able to focus in that area."</p>
<p>So could I technically get a Business Administration/Management degree from Penn, with a focus on Sport Management?</p>
<p>I justy told you about York.. did you just ignore me?</p>
<p>I was typing in a "Thank You" note to you about York as you said that, LOL.</p>
<p>I don't want to go to Canada for school, though.</p>
<p>I apologize..... but York College is in York, Pennsylvania</p>
<p>just trying to help you out.. that's all... you seem like a smart kid</p>
<p>Oh really? Geez, I was looking at York University! Let me check out the college.</p>
<p>My sister's studying the whole Sports Management - apparently a very good program at UMich Ann Arbor</p>
<p>A2WOLVES: where are u from?</p>
<p>A2 - Ann Arbor ;-)</p>
<p>A2-- I'd suspect you'd need to get accepted to Wharton, a first major hurdle, then major in management or marketing, and interact somehow with this sports business group to do some focused things in the sports area. Again, I have no clue whether this is an undergraduate option because all I see written on student activities is:</p>

Students have long requested more formal opportunities to focus on the business of sports while at the Wharton School. WSBI introduces students to the Sports Business Industry through:</p>
<p>-Sports Business Consulting Practicum opportunities, company treks, and independent study projects;</p>
<p>-sponsoring sports-specific conferences, speakers, career panels, receptions and forums to raise exposure to leaders and key topics in the sports business industry;</p>
<p>-facilitating recruiting efforts in this highly competitive industry by working hand-in-hand with career services, companies and alumni;</p>
<p>-support of student-run sports business focused clubs at the MBA and undergraduate levels;</p>
<p>-there are no sports management degree programs at Wharton and currently no plans to introduce them</p>
<p>-certificate programs can be customize for sports industry organizations.

<p>Suggest you contact the program directly....don't go thru admissions to figure out if this is a possibility:</p>
<p>"To learn more about these educational programs email us at <a href="mailto:sportsbusiness@wharton.upenn.edu">sportsbusiness@wharton.upenn.edu</a> or contact Professor Kenneth Shropshire, WSBI Faculty Director, at 215-898-3017."</p>
<p>I'd urge you to make a phone call (repeatedly if necessary) to the named professor until you connect, rather than to send an email to this drop-box. Much easier to ignore an email.</p>
<p>My older brother is majoring in business/accounting and minoring in sports management at U of Florida.</p>
<p>Best safety, Springfield College, we sent 4 girls tis their for sports management.</p>
