One study documented that business undergrads actually performed worse in MBA programs than non-business majors.Ħ. At some MBA programs less than 25% of their students possess undergrad business degrees. Not having an undergrad business degree can actually help when applying to MBA programs. Majoring in business could hurt your MBA chances. Here's a post that I wrote about the study: The Perils of Majoring in Business.ĥ. Prominent labor economists examined what Harvard Business School grads were doing 15 years after graduating and certain business majors were having a difficult time juggling career and home life.
What you're telegraphing when you major in business is that you want to make money, but do you have what it takes to some day earn that corner office? It's hard to stand out from the crowd when more than one out of every five new college grads is a business major. The job market is crawling with business majors. It fared worse than such "impractical" college degrees as philosophy, history and American studies.ģ. When PayScale looked at starting and mid-career salaries of college graduates in dozens of college majors, business came in as the 56th best-paying college degree. If you're interested in making tons of money, here's a wake-up call: in the latest college degree salary survey from PayScale, business is NOT one of the best-paying college degrees. You won't make as much money as you think.
