No - no major will make you stand out. However, having a business major will allow you to take finance courses which will definitely make technicals easier. Take advantage of the SFS and double major - if you don’t want to work in finance SFS is the most prestigouundergraduate school if it’s kind.
Awesome, this is so helpful. Thank you so much 3
While I'm on the subject, are there any extracurricular clubs/activities you'd recommend for the same purpose?
Try to join your student fund - that is probably enough for finance extracurriculars and get a top position moving forward. Outside of that, network starting right now and take any internship/work experience you can this summer. Once you get to school do things that interest you - your "story" is just about you and what you are interested in.
