Transferring from CC - Deciding between majors
I am going to be transferring with a 3.6 (I had a 3.9 but I tanked it this semester, unfortunate but what can ya do?)
I am applying to a few schools, 3 of them are Northeastern, Boston College, Boston University. Ideally I would like to either work in IB and then pivot into the startup space or VC, or just go into a startup right after college. With this being said:
I am deciding between a few majors. Do I apply to the business schools as a Finance major or General Management/Administration major? Or should I play it a bit safe and go with Econ since it's a bit easier to actually get accepted in the first place?
Thanks for the help.
Hi don't be scared homie, check out these links:

wtf

Take the fin major and don't look back, BU & Northeastern are not that that hard to transfer into but BC may be a toss up.
Ya BC is legit 50/50 no matter who u are it seems
If you get accepted into Northeastern you are also accepted into the business school, so I'd recommend applying as a Finance concentration if that is what you're most interested in. For BU, I have some friends there including one recent transfer who are struggling to transfer into Questrom (the business school). Not sure how much insight that provides but thought I would mention it.
Regarding IB chances, each school is relatively similar. BU and BC have slightly better reputations, but Northeastern has stronger undergrad job opportunities due to the co-op program... they've also been gaining momentum on the street lately (still a semi-non-target though). Don't think you can go wrong with any choice.
