So I have to choose between Wellesley and The College of New Jersey.

If I go to Wellesley, there’s no business major (there’s economics, but it’s too math intense and competitive for me). So I’d be a psychology major, and after graduating, I’d go into business management.

However, at TCNJ, I’d be a Business major with a concentration in management.

The question is, should I go to a very prestigious school for a major unrelated to business, or should I go to a comparatively unknown school, but major in business? Which would give me a better chance of getting a good job?

I just don’t know what to do…

The main thing is to have a career in something you like. If you major in psychology at the prestigious school, you may get sidetracked from your goal.

Also if you still need to go to Grad school you have another chance for a more prestigious school and Grad school usually counts more any ways. Grad school is employer are more impressed for where you went (so I hear).

I would have to work for a few years, and then go back to get my MBA. Most programs won’t take you right after undergrad. Therefore, I need to attend a college that will best prepare me to work right afterwards.
