Easy LAC for business major

I disagree - average salary of Tulane business grad four years post grad is 87k, Harvard political science is 89k - basically the same. Business degrees are the way to go if you can’t hack engineering and aren’t at an elite school.

Absolutely, with a very good pipeline to Wall Street and NYC-area finance. Probably the best option for OP's kid. They love mediocre full pay's with connections.

Trinity, despite its deceptively low acceptance rate, is easy to get into if you're full pay and you go test optional. The CDS bears this out. Almost no one submits test scores or even class rank.

Bucknell is another great LAC to study business. It's test preferred rather than test optional, with most applicants submitting scores, but the midranges are reasonable: 1170-1370 SAT and 25-32 ACT. Among incoming freshmen who submitted class rank, fewer than half were in the top 10%. Though the incoming student stats aren't elite, the outcomes are: business grads have almost a guaranteed pipeline to The Street if they put even a modicum of effort into networking.

St Lawrence. Doesn’t have a biz degree but economics major and a lot of good finance placement.

You forgot, “And want to work in business”
