You don’t have to major in business to go into a business career. In fact, business schools take students form every major imaginable, and while there are many Econ/“Business” majors going to top B-Schools (HBS, Tuck, Booth, Wharton, SBS, etc.), there are plenty of people there that majored in something unrelated. In fact, B-Schools like classes of diverse educational backgrounds because it enhances the learning and because they’ll have a graduating class going into many different fields of business, not just iBanking.

Side note: One of my biggest pet peeves is people that major/minor in “Business” or “Business Administration”. You don’t need to spend tens of thousands of dollars to earn a degree in business when people can learn the exact same stuff you’re learning while on the job. That’s also why most top-institutions don’t have “business” majors… it’s such BS. You should major/minor in Econ, that’s not a waste of time.
