Adding on a finance minor to any other business major, or even non-business major, at Saint Louis University should be valuable for students.
Entry-level finance jobs pay some of the highest salaries in the business field and provide for greater job mobility. Additionally, skills gained through finance courses can be valuable when taking admissions tests for, and applying to, graduate schools for an MBA degree. Thus, in a cost-benefit analysis, adding a minor in finance from the Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business may be worth the investment of time and resources.
