Can I major in philosophy; minor in business/finance, and then go to graduate school for business?
Entrepreneurship and the business world really fascinate me. I love the whole idea of being financially independent; setting your own standards; working with other people; and the endless possibilities. On the other hand, I also have a passion for learning: Trying to understand life per se, and the world we live in.
I think philosophy would provide a good foundation before I go into the business world. However, my concern is: Do I need a bacholar’s degree in Business to get an MBA in business?
You do not need a degree in business. Just keep your grades up and make sure you take all required classes even if they are not part of your major. A lot of people will not tell you this but, connections mean everything. At the end of the day it is the people you know that will make you or break you so be sure to do some internships during the summer or even the school year. Also, be honest to yourself. Take what you want to take. Don’t try and please people by fitting a mold. Honesty is hard to come by these days and interviewers will be pleased that you went down your own path. Hope that helps.
