I will say that the finance major at the George Washington School of Business requires you to take Calculus 2. If I could go back I would have personally taken that class in high school or even before transferring. Some courses that will make your stand out, or at least save you some serious time are AP Stats, AP Macro, AP Micro, Calculus 2. All business majors at GWSB students have to take an upper level statistics course, introductory microeconomics and macroeconomics course and an upper level division math course. I’ll say that if you ever try to transfer into GWSB those courses will really help make your application stand out. IMO, taking those courses and getting solid A’s and B’s in them demonstrates readiness as those courses are prequisites to a number of upper division courses you will have to take your junior and senior year. Most of the GWSB transfer students I met in my transfer development course had taken introductory accounting and economics courses. Finally, it does seem that you’ve got the stat and introductory microeconomics…this is good just make sure you get solid 4’s or 5’s so you don’t have to take those courses at George Washington. Not saying that the latter is necessarily a bad thing but it’s certainly nice to have those courses done so you can go straight into the more advanced courses such as FINA 4301: Financial Derivatives. Taking courses such as those early on can really make you stand out when you apply to competitive internships.
Good luck!
