Thanks for responding. That’s odd. I’ve checked out a few MSF programs and they don’t require that many courses in mathematics; they seem to only require a course in calculus. If what you’re saying is true, I might as well minor in Accounting and Finance as well as majoring in Economics (I’d graduate a semester+ earlier if I only majored in Economics, and at this point, that’s the timetable I’d prefer.) To major in Accounting and Finance (which would be ideal) I’d have another two+ years and have to take five (in my opinion, pointless) management courses as well. I want to go into Finance, and I was thinking an undergraduate degree in Economics and an MS (hopefully only one year) in Finance from a better school than my current one would give me essentially the same amount of relevant knowledge that I would receive if I majored in Accounting and Finance or majored in Economics and minored in Accounting and Finance at this school.
