Which Claremont College is the Best for Business?

Okay folks, need your insights. I'm looking specifically at Claremont colleges for my business major. Any thoughts on which Claremont college is best for business?

9 months ago

When considering the Claremont Colleges for a business major, it's important to note that not all of them offer an undergraduate degree in business. The Claremont Colleges are comprised of Pomona, Scripps, Claremont McKenna (CMC), Harvey Mudd, and Pitzer. The Keck Graduate Institute and Claremont Graduate University are also part of the consortium, but they only offer graduate programs.

Of these, Claremont McKenna College (CMC) is particularly known for its strong programs in economics, government, and international relations. While CMC does not offer a traditional "business" major, its Robert Day Scholars Program provides students with a comprehensive understanding of business leadership and management complemented with a heavy focus on economics. The program is famed for its rigorous academic and co-curricular activities that prepare students for leadership roles in business and industry.

In fact, CMC's economics major combined with the Robert Day Scholars Program or its Financial Economics sequence can serve as a robust, effective preparation for a career in business. The college's strong focus on leadership and its access to internships and career services can offer practical experience and connections in the world of business.

Remember, though, the best college for you is not just about the academic program; it also includes aspects like campus culture, size, location, and extracurricular opportunities. I encourage you to consider these factors in your decision as well.
