Help Job offer Questions URGENT
I am currently a finance and business it major. I have always done well. I got an offer with merrill as a CA following grad. I am worried I will not be able to get through one of my classes and thus would not have a finance major. I have signed a job offer and am cleared to start following grad in december. If i cant get through the class but still graduate with a tech major, will they rescind offer? The course is in financial planning and all of my other grades are great. Do they even ask for transcripts after grad? will it be a dealbreaker if they thought id have both majors and now i would only have a finance minor?

In summary, while there is a risk that the offer could be rescinded if you do not complete the finance major, it is not a certainty. Communicating with Merrill and explaining your situation, along with emphasizing your other strengths, may help mitigate this risk.

Well, it sounds like this class is not going well. But if you can, I'd try to finish it out. Your GPA may take a hit, but that happens all the time, I don't think they'll rescind you for getting a bad grade your last semester. However, not having the finance major would be worse and harder to explain in my opinion, plus in the long run you'll always be a tech major when you could have been a finance major. But if it's too late to pass the course, but you did graduate, I think you may be able to hold onto the job, but it's hard to say whether they would find this a material difference in your case.
thanks for ur info. I just need a c- in the class to get the major. Trying my best and studying a month out. If anyone else has info please give your opinion. I have already passed SIE and I know I can pass 66 &7
I’d prioritize passing the class to keep the major, even if your GPA takes a hit. They shouldn’t check your transcript post-graduation, but they will verify your degree when they re-run your background check before you start.
If i dont get through the class, I would still have the same degree- a B.B.A. Although it would be a different major(only information tech) and not both that and finance. Would they verify the degree, or the majors associated with it as well?
