Carson W asked:


I plan to go to UVA and get a degree. What degree should I get for venture capital? (economics, undergrad business, or finance?) I think one of my strongest suits is my international capability. I know English, French, and Chinese fluently, and have passable Spanish, Arabic, and Hindi. Where could I get an entry level job, how much will it pay, how fast does it promote, and what is the possibility I could actually get one? Thanks for any help.

    3. Yes, absolutely.

    Finance, economics, and accounting will all work.

    Depending upon your interest and abilities, other majors may have appeal.

    Keep in mind that connections and networking matter as much as or more than the degree and GPA. Use your time wisely at UVA. You have excellent opportunities to connect with and impress (1) alumnae, (2) professors, (3) administrative personnel, and (4) other students. Seek everything that interests you while in college and when something strikes you that (1) you like and (2) you are good at, milk the connections to the nth degree.

    The best opportunities (and jobs) will always come from your network — the better the network…
