What College Major Should I Pursue?
Hello BiggerPockets! I am currently a freshman in college who is finishing up his first semester at school. I am already planning on majoring in Business with a concentration in real estate and finance but there is one problem. The business school at UNC- Chapel Hill is highly competitive and only 50% of applicants get in each year to pursue a business degree. Since I am trying to get out of college in 3 years (3.5 at max), if I am not accepted into the business school I will go for other majors and count on my networking to get into real estate. What other majors should I pursue? Or should I try to apply twice to the business school to get in and go to school for four years?
I understand that a major is not necessary and experience is the most important but I will only be going for an undergraduate because I want to find a W2 to fund my first properties.
