Question Regarding Major/School
I will attempt to keep this as brief as possible. I welcome all intelligent feedback, advice, and criticism.
I am currently attending a U.S. Service Academy (think top 10 school) and plan to transfer. Currently I am attempting to transfer to a target school (Cornell, UPenn, Columbia) as well as some lower-tier schools (UC Berkeley, Vanderbilt) and finally a guaranteed school (UT Austin).
I want to major in CS and minor in Finance/Econ. My reasoning: I am attempting to leave as many doors open as possible, with the end goal of entrepreneurship. I am very interested in IB, but am also open to silicon valley if it can provide me a better income. Both CS and IB are short-term for me (5 years) as, again, I plan to be an entrepreneur.
My question is this: am I hurting my chances to secure an internship and ultimately a job as an analyst by choosing to major in CS and minor in Finance/Econ?
Again, thanks for your time and responses.
Not at all. A CS major definitely opens more doors for you, and your specific major is not all that important in IB. You'll just need to be able to explain why you chose the major. But no, you're not at a disadvantage at all for IB recruiting
