<p>I would think that something like Finance or Economics, if that appeals to you would probably be beneficial. I like Matt’s idea of possibly getting that statistics certificate, as statisticians can make a pretty penny, but you have to like stats to want to do that. </p>
<p>I’m not really of the mindset that a business degree is really all that beneficial. It seems like business is what everyone majors in- sometimes with good reason, sometimes not really. I think that Finance or Economics or something, a specialty sort of within the business field would be more beneficial.</p>
<p>Of course, it’s going to depend on what you want. It might be a good idea to focus first on International Affairs and then throughout your first semester (or two), talk with your advisor(s) about what second major would be a good idea.</p>
<p>If you’re particularly inclined (and can do it feasibly), you could also do two degrees (two majors, two minors) at the same time. If you’ll start with a number of the gen ed class requirements fulfilled that could be a way to have an International Affairs degree and a degree in something else. </p>
<p>I ended up doing the dual degree track (instead of double majoring) for a number of reasons, although neither degree was in anything that you’re looking at. Just be aware that the dual degree option requires about 150 credit hours to complete (instead of 120 for one Bachelors degree), so you’d probably need/want to enter with at least 30 credits.</p>
