What major for Hedge Funds?

<p>Hey I’m really interested in Hedge Funds and basically Investing in General. I’ve been accepted to Carnegie Mellon and theres a good chance i go there to play football. it’s either there or Hopkins. i know CMU it’s a great place to be at for anything in business. I was just wondering what is a good major to get involved in Investing… i was thinking Finance or Economics?.. Also, what characteristics make one successful in hedge funds or investing in general ?</p>
