Ignore this advice. Doing a liberal arts major to gain "writing and critical thinking skills" is the best path to become a loser chanting in support of terrorism in the streets on NYC and DC.

Very few of the students at Top 10 MBA programs (the people who typically become CEOs) majored in business as undergraduates.

Actually, 48% of all MBAs have an undergraduate business degree. In fact, at HBS 22% of applicants have an undergraduate business degree followed by 21% with an undergraduate economics degree (which is Ivy league kids that didn't go to Penn and majored in the closest degree to business). Those are the two most popular undergrad majors.

+1 some people's perception of a business degree is outdated by 30 years.

Exactly. I think it's a weird criteria. Especially now with so much being online or virtual. Agree the schools have connections with local companies near colleges. But I know plenty of people who work in DC or NYC from UF or UGA etc.

Did they start their careers in DC or NYC? If my kid were to go to UGA I would tell them to expect to start their career in Atlanta because they probably have access to better opportunities.
