“Thanks for the info. Just one more thing; when you say “get into Calloway,” does that mean you have to apply to the business school after your sophomore year? If so, do you know how hard it is or the average acceptance rate? Would it be like applying to Wharton or an equally competitive business school (<20% acceptance), or is the acceptance rate generally much higher? Say that I had full intentions of studying business at Wake, but I wasn’t accepted to the business school? What would happen? Thanks again for the info.”

Most people are accepted to the business school. If you’re really intent on doing business, study really hard for Calc, econ, & accounting. I don’t know many people who didn’t get into Calloway, but the ones I know who didn’t are doing econ / entrepreneurship. Chances are, if you didn’t do well in the prereq classes, you wouldn’t do well in Calloway, either. I’m pretty sure you can still take business classes @ Calloway and even minor(?) if you’re not in it, but you can only major if you get in. If you’re super intent on business, I would not be concerned at all – you’ll focus on your prereqs, do well, apply, & get in :)
