Advice regarding major

Hi everyone, if you attend a target school (UVA) but are not a finance major within the School of Commerce, do you still have a shot at Ibanking? For example, if your major is Economics (concentration in Financial Economics) with a minor in English from the College of Arts and Sciences with a high GPA. I never thought of Ibanking as a career until here recently and otherwise I've picked up all my finance knowledge from personal education.

Thanks, Lance
