Lots of students do. Many go to Wall Street and become analysts before applying to go to get their MBA then become investment bankers. Or they go into consulting. Both very lucrative careers.

Interesting. Are these the B students?

Clarify. "B" as in Business or "B" as in their grade?

Ha ha. Grades.

What kind of kids go for a business undergrad?

Genuine question since the discussions (on DCUM and outside around this area) seem to be focused on STEM or Biological fields (code for pre-med).

Do a lot of STEM kids go to business school at UVA? For instance, of the 100+ TJ kids that go there, how many go to the business school vs. Eng./BIO/CS?

Interesting post, OP. I have long thought that only Wharton undergrad is better than UVA business undergrad. UVA is a fabulous school.

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.

Agree. The sole cheerleader of this school posts here multiple times a day. Getting old

Who gets a “business” degree for undergrad?

Why are you so bothered that other people might not share your opinion about this?

Why are you so seriously insecure?

mcintire is the undergrad b school.

darden is the mba - but it won't be 180 median. no b school will have median salaries that high.
