<p>After reviewing many colleges, I'm a bit scared because most universities' business schools admit most of their students after freshman and/or sophomore year. The average acceptance rates I'm seeing for these business schools is about 40-50%, so what do all of the kids do who don't make the cut at the end of their freshman/sophomore years do? Seems kind of flawed that they are left with no alternative after placing so much investment in a school.</p>
<p>They crawl in a hole and DIE.</p>
<p>Depends on the size (and other majors/courses) of the school. I knew PLENTY of business majors who did not get admitted to the business school to major in Economics. They still took the core courses from their INTENDED major and still got jobs and continued their careers. Some used a major like Food Systems Management (not part of business school) and still did sales and/or marketing.</p>
<p>Some got some work experience and REALLY dedicated themselves to the GMAT and still got MBA’s.</p>
<p>As long as you have related majors not part of the business school but still allows to to take business courses (as electives) then you still have a chance. You just have to do it at the graduate level.</p>
<p>It’s a joke at our school (but it’s also VERY true) that those who can’t make it in business school eventually end up in Political Science. Have you ever looked at that? Poly Science isn’t that bad of a major, I find it very interesting.</p>
