College dilemma

Hi guys,

I'm currently a Sophomore at a decent big 10 school(think Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan). I was rejected from the business school and am currently a economics major. My grades are fine(roughly 3.5), but I am not interested in the material at all and feel like I should be studying finance and accounting.

My question is, should I look to transfer to other schools? I'm afraid that economics is not teaching me what I need to know, and I won't be a competitive applicant for ibanking positions in the future.

I appreciate the input.
