Would I be crazy to pass on Fincance CSOM?!

If you want my personal opinion, I would argue that CSOMs best and most highly rated department is our accounting. It doesn’t get nearly the attention of, say, finance because its not as “sexy” of a major, doesn’t directly get people into prestigious investment banks, and (if you’re a guy) it doesn’t quite get the response from the ladies when compared to saying your a finance major. But, about 95% of the faculty is outstanding, and close to 40% of the graduating accounting CSOM class goes into Big 4.

The point I’m trying to make is that to pass up Finance is certainly no big deal, as all the departments in CSOM are great. Also to highlight is our great Info Systems department which does bi-annual trips to tech firms in NYC and Silicon Valley.
