<p>After receiving an A.A. degree from a local community college (for location and cheaper classes that transfer for equivalent credits), I am aspiring to receive a B.A. in Finance from a SUNY school. The pros of this are simple enough: it is again a local school and it offers a respectable education at a modest price. I am here to find out more:</p>

<p>What is the value of a major at a decent SUNY school, what kind of job opportunity is there? I could get an entry level job at a bank at 15/hr., anything more prestigious?</p>

<p>What level of difficulty is the Finance major?</p>

<p>What kind of GPA should I maintain to get a decent job?</p>

<p>Any stories of similar paths are more than welcome.</p>

<p>Which SUNY?</p>

<p>Specifically SUNY New Paltz, but who knows? Maybe Oswego… anything in the southeastern part of New York is possible.</p>
