<p>How is it for Finance and Overall Business, besides the rankings.</p>
<p>Finance is the most competitive major. We have a trading room and an investment association that handles real money. Upperclassmen can get internships and jobs on Wall Street and with other competitive firms but you have to work very hard. Our other business majors are good as well. I highly recommend visiting the school. I am currently a finance major at Smeal, and I love it.</p>
<p>just got in!!!</p>
<p>Actuarial science is the best Smeal major when it comes to job placement and salary</p>
<p>My actuarial science advisor said that 100% of Smeal actuarial science students who passed at least 1 exam landed a job. He said they were unaffected by the recession this past year. Many got jobs with starting salaries in the high 60s and low 70s (thousand)</p>
