STEM vs. Finance undergrad at UVA for BB
tldr: Would it be better to major in finance (McIntire) or CS+Stat for BB recruitment
I'm a student at UVA currently interested in banking, hopefully shooting for BB firms and wondering about which major I should pursue for best chances at recruitment. I've taken intro CS classes and comm school pre-reqs and find both fairly interesting. I've been interested in CS and while working with my scheduling realized it would also be very easy to double major in statistics, which is what I may plan on doing. I heard that recruiters look favorably on stem degrees, however I know that McIntire is also a good target. Both options seem achievable and interested, and either way I would still be getting involved in clubs/internships, so the only real difference is the undergrad degree.
bro why did you tag #UVA IU Kelley McIntire?
My bad, must've accidentally clicked that intending to hit something else.
Regarding your question, it doesn't really matter. I know a ton of comm kids that have secured offers and I know a ton of non-comm kids that have secured offers. Study whatever you're most passionate about.
Study finance but cs if you’re interested in learning code
