AEM specializations + Minor

Hey guys,

I'm a sophomore in AEM minoring in Comm and I'm planning on specializing in marketing and strategy- the two specializations have several overlapping requirements making it pretty simple to get both if you're going for one. I was considering tacking on a finance specialization- after looking at the requirements (which are all, obviously, very different from those in marketing and strategy), it seems fairly doable. It's basically another 9 credits worth of finance-oriented classes. I'm looking for perspective on the extra specialization, whether its worth it (job market, overload of work, potential to not study abroad), and the average difficulty of managing a finance specialization from current/past AEM students. Thanks in advance for your input on if this is worth it.

I'm pretty sure you're only allowed a maximum of two specializations. Ask your adviser just to be sure, though.

I was unable to respond to the PM because I don't have enough posts. You'll be fine, especially ED, no doubt. You can apply regular and be fine, and you probably have solid chances at schools with a higher rank.
