Undergrad business degrees are a joke.

Tell that to the grads who make $73K as a 22 year old.

No, more like $100K as a 22-year-old after signing and annual bonus. That's a ton of dough for a kid.

Plus Annual Bonus...
The average estimated annual bonus is $22,271.

On what planet are the elites privates worth it over McIntire? Show me any data from an elite that surpasses this.

The elite colleges can’t compare...because they don’t even have undergrad business schools.

There's Wharton and NYU Stern. But at Duke Chicago and Ivies, most future Wall Street bankers just major in economics or history. Even so, their salaries are virtually indistinguishable from McIntire's

Do top schools even offer undergrad “business” degrees?

No, that's the point......with the exception of Wharton undergrad. You might as well get a trade school degree given that you'll be a philistine for the rest of your life.

All jokes aside...do you really not know of the career options open to undergrad business degree holders?

Here's a few:

Investment bank analyst on wall street
hedge fund analyst
consulting firm associate
venture fund analyst
government contracting firm associate

All of the above have healthy starting salaries for an 22 year old. How in the world are you not aware of this?

I think you must not know what a Philistine is (which seems to corroborate PP’s point about the narrowness of your college education).

Is that wrong? If college was free, maybe we should look at it another way (whatever that may be). Since they are practially robbing your wallet to "educate" your kid, the only way to look at the value on that investment is the return.

Let's face, it I can learn most of the crap that a college can teach me for free on a MOOC or on the internet. The only reason I'd go to a college is for the pedigree and the resultant salary.

Nope. But it isn't the whole story.

I earn a nice living. I contribute to the country in a positive way every day. I have an advanced degree. I use my training every day. I can afford to support my child's education, but not absolutely anywhere without aid. I am very well read in the classics because of my undergrad training. This brings me joy even today. Life is pretty good.

I could earn more if I entered the private sector, but I don't want to and I don't need to for my life to be complete. I could earn less at a college training the next generation in my field, but I don't want to.

Please tell me what is wrong with my choices? There are many paths to a good life.

I'm sorry you didn't get in to your first choice.

I have a hard sciences undergrad and a business grad. I am very well read in much more than the classics - philosophy, psychology, politics, management theory, history.. - the list goes on. I can hold my own - EASILY- with anyone on any of those topics. And the best part is, I didn't waste money getting that knowledge.

I do all things you state in your first para. and can send my kids to any school they want to go to.

Please tell me what is wrong with my choices? You pick your path, I will mine.

I'm happy about my first choice and the choices it allows me to make (or buy).

Okay, so you have two 22 year olds working as analysts on Wall Street. Exact same job. One majored in finance and one in economics. Why is one a “philistine” and one isn’t?

This pp seems to think seeking wealth somehow makes you a philistine.. How narrow a point of view! Wonder if he they realize that it's money that helps revive and preserve art and helps people like him pontificate from an ivory tower. Wonders never cease..

That's hilarious...do you even know what these individual careers entail? No, you don't.

Lol. You are clueless.

There wasn't one undergrad business school degree holder in my HNS class......do you know why?

Forgive me, I’m just a pleb with an undergraduate business degree, but what’s HNS...

"Holy Nutjob School" maybe

These people add nothing to society. They are just graspers with middling intellgence. Not one innovator among them and character is questionable as well.

I don't think they care when they are literally making millions on Wall Street or at a venture fund.

Six years out of Wharton undergrad I was clearing a million a year. I don’t give a f*** about the “classics.”
