<p>“only do McIntire if you care strongly about landing a finance-related job.”</p>
<p>What if you want a management job? What if you want a marketing job? What if you just want to major in the business area? You don’t have to go to business school, or McIntire, to get a “finance related job.”</p>
<p>“The academic coursework sucks and is not at all intellectually stimulating.”</p>
<p>Says who? You? Are you in McIntire? Define “intellectually stimulating.” What makes the coursework “suck?”</p>
<p>“For some reason though, employers love the McIntire name, and this alone might be worth doing it.”</p>
<p>Ever think employers love the McIntire name because its graduates excel in their jobs? It isn’t just “for some reason”/dumb luck. It wasn’t rated the no. 2 business school by business week 2 years in a row for nothing.</p>
<p>Regardless of what you think, the McIntire School of Commerce is UVa’s <em>premier</em> undergraduate program. You shouldn’t be knocking it–infact, I’d be shocked if its graduates didn’t give the most money to the University.</p>
