Non-traditional student
Ok, without going into too much detail, here is my situation. I am a senior at the Carlson School of Management in Minnesota and in my 30's. I never attended college after high school and business was the furthest thing from my mind. I started at a community college 4 years ago without any preconceived notions of obtaining a degree; it was just something to keep me busy. Well, four years later I am about to obtain my BSB in finance and accounting with roughly a 3.7 GPA. I've been involved in sales for the past ten years and own a couple fitness franchises and some real estate. The worry that I have is whether an entreprenurial attitude and some small success would not translate well into an entry-level analyst position (grunt work) at one of the local boutique investment banks or hedge funds. Two questions: 1) How political is the industry as I described it? 2) Given my brief personal description what other high-finance occupations might be a good fit, if any?
