geography/urban planning university degree in Real Estate

How far would a geography/urban planning university degree take you in this industry? Can one become an "analyst"? I saw one of the comments in other threads saying you don't even need college for residential real estate?

I really have no idea about this industry ....yet...literally just googling differences between commercial and residential....

You'd be better off studying finance or economics with real estate electives. You don't need college for residential real estate if you want to be a sales associate.
