There are a lot of solid colleges that specialize in finance and entrepreneurship.
One of my all time favorite colleges (even before the WSJ rankings came out) is Babson College, which has an excellent entrepreneurship program. (I'm in fact wearing my Babson hoodie right now lol)
There are obviously the other colleges that fall in the T20s/Ivys/UCs, such as MIT, UChicago, Wharton (UPenn), UC Berkeley, etc.
The main thing about your application should be highlighting business and leadership roles in your ECs and focusing on your college apps.
Feel free to explore the internet on places like USNews and the WSJ for some college rankings to discover some other colleges to add to your application list
Unfortunately with a 2.8 GPA, most schools will throw away your application without seeing other parts of your application. Plan on attending CC then transferring into a good college, you clearly have the work ethic and transfer students have higher acceptance rates!
Your chance of acceptance
