Business programs are usually pretty prescribed and are in different schools so it's sometimes possible to take classes in another school within the university but not to double major. I am personally not a fan of undergrad business as I think an MBA is more useful and it's not necessary (and in fact repetitive) to do undergrad business to get an MBA. In my top 5 B-school we had very few people who were undergrad business majors. That being said the undergrad b-school at UVA is very highly regarded.

+1. I just don't understand teaching business to people who are barely into adulthood and have no professional work experience.[/quote]
Teaching business to people who are barely adults? It does not seem like you understand what business school teaches and why it would be useful/valuable to known. Undergrad business majors pick a concentrations in one of the following, but you will have a general knowledge of all.
Accounting
Decision Sciences
Entrepreneurial/Small Business Management
Finance
General Business
Information Systems
International Business
Management
Marketing

Exactly.  Also, every schools has its strengths and weaknesses.  NO one school is "best" for all specialties.  South Carolina has (by far) the best international business program, but the rest of the business school is nothing special.[/quote]
