I am looking into cornell, but I am really not sure what I want to do. All I know is that I want to major in something business-related, but also take more classes like art history, etc. Is there business program decent? Is it easy to take business classes from different colleges, and then other liberal arts classes as well? I'm sorry if I sound like an idiot, I'm just really not familiar with this stuff.

Hello Elisetrop

I will be a senior this coming fall at Cornell. I am double-majoring in Business and Animal Science. The business program is actually really good at Cornell. The major that you would apply for is AEM (Applied Economics and Management). The Undergraduate Business Program has recently been accredited by AACSB International-The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, making it one of only two accredited undergraduate business degree programs in the Ivy League. UPENN is the other school with this accreditation (Wharton School of Business). It's a really good program.

As for your double major with Art History--I'm not sure how that works out because you would have to take courses in the Arts School. Both of my majors are in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. You may have to obtain an dual-degree. Here, you would have to complete requirements for both schools. this is definitely possible (i've got a couple of friends who are doing this), but it is kind of challenging. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any more questions you may have.
