Spending >4 years in UG

Just curious, what are the general thoughts on taking longer than 4 years to complete UG? I came in to Uni undecided, pursued a Chemistry major and ended up transferring out and (now) am in pursuit of a BBA in Finance. It's going to take me an extra semester or two to finish up.

Also, should I bother mentioning my previous school on my resume?

Thanks!

Include the other school on your resume. Doesn't matter if it takes you an extra year to graduate just have a story/reason for it in case it comes up
