For accounting if you have a 3.3 GPA or above you will leave college with a job (through campus recruitment) if you go to UCSB. You will still find jobs if your GPA is lower, except you need to search a little more. I am sure economics majors do well too, come on now you won’t find a difference in job placements from Cal Poly vs. UCSB. Based on my experience there were just as many students representing UCSB as Cal Poly for summer internships.

The reason I said go to Cal poly for Business administration is because if you choose not to do accounting, you will have other options such as finance, marketing or MIS. I strongly recommend UCSB if you are sure about either Accounting or economics.

Again, the above statements are strictly based on academic interests. I recommend that you go where you would be happier. Don’t worry about prestige or job placements, especially in this case because both schools are good.
