Which major should I get for a Real Estate Investing career?
Hello everybody!
I am a sophomore at Purdue University, and I am looking to switch my major from Education to something business related for the sake of my real estate investing career since I fell in love with this over the summer. I have a full ride, so I don't want to forego such an awesome blessing despite the lack of necessity for college education in this field.
The catalog and information for the majors is here:

I am not sure which of Accounting, Economics, Finance, General Management, Management, I should pursue as a major that is pertinent to what I am trying to do, while at the same time not being too strenuous that I cannot start owning properties in college (the former criterion being more important than the latter).
I should also note that I am in the process of getting my Realtors license and likely working with the office of Carpenter realty while in college.
Thank you to anybody who takes the time to respond and help out a rookie like me! I would love to discuss with you!
