[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Business School outcomes are not that different across schools unless you are talking about the tippy top (and Kelley is not in that group regardless of its ranking). Think Penn, Michigan, UVA, etc.

Even a low-ranked school like JMU averaged $75K in starting salary across all majors in 2023 with over 80% of the students having had an internship. As for content, I can't imagine them being vastly different across schools. Pick the school where your child would be happiest. You can always supplement with a master's degree/MBA.[/quote]

For schools like JMU, it's mostly accounting and such. 
School matters to an extent for business program for better wider opportunities.

So are you saying pick a school you want and then worry about major or go to school you're no lt excited about as long as you're in business major?[/quote]

DP. If your child is focused on business, then pick the best school for business. More than likely they'll do well and get into the business program (if not direct admit) as long as they don't hate the school.  If unsure about major, pick the school that excites them the most and figure things out after the first year.[/quote]
