“I chose Business Economics because I wanted to go into Finance. So far, I’m only taking GEs so the major isn’t too hard but my view might change depending on when I take major specific courses.”

“My major provides a good review of the business both quantitative and qualitative skills that’s important for a career in the future.”

“Im a transfer so it's a different experience but I'm loving it so far! I'm looking into grad school and I think there's a lot of guidance.”

“i love bus econ!!! it’s so cool and awesome. while i don’t love the mgmt classes, the econ classes are pretty chill. i like how they apply math a lot and technical concepts and all classes incorporate real world activities”

“Business is defenitly easier than some more math intensive majors but you have to make sure you stay involved. Have to do a lot of stuff outisde of class to ensure success and career oppurtunities.”

“Studying Business Administration at USC Marshall has been one of the most defining experiences of my college life. I chose this major because I wanted a strong foundation in economics, strategy, and leadership, and I’ve found that Marshall delivers on that — especially for students willing to take initiative and go beyond the minimum. What I appreciated most was the practical, real-world application of what we learned. Many classes involved case studies, Excel modeling, and presentations that mimicked real consulting or business environments, which made the content feel relevant and high-stakes.”

“Learning Business is about networking, connecting, and recruiting in my opinion. While theories are needed to establish a foundation, more emphasis should be placed on expanding your social circle than earning a high GPA. Explore career or professional student organizations early as they often offer good opportunities to your interest careers. Business is a broad category, be sure to understand each sub-categories of business (finance, accounting, consulting, BD, BA, etc.) to find your best fit.”

“Fun major to study. You get to meet with people and work on projects. If you like meeting with people and socializing, this major is for you.”
