This speaks to me! I have the same story. I secured a big 4 internship right after my sophomore year and had 2 more summer internships after that which led to a full time job in audit. Back then I didn't know there were other avenues to explore outside audit and tax so I just stuck with core accounting for a while because I thought that having an accounting degree meant you're pretty much stuck with accounting, audit, or tax. not knowing that people can pivot into more interesting jobs in business. I feel like I've pigeonholed myself at times but now working to move into a finance role to get into asset management. Just wish I knew a faster way to get there early on.

Basically the same major. I don’t know what do you think you’re gonna get more from a marketing degree..

Don’t Listen to people online! Seriously ! I did explore as a Multimedia Designer diploma to a Graphic Designer Bachelors. Hated my job, people I work with, got burned out so quickly, too much competition as a designer and marketing job. Got FIRED! Now I am in huge tuition debt I owe to loans.

I decided to pursue an accounting degree because it was something I like to begin with. Do not explore and be in debt.

PLEASE DONT LISTEN TO PEOPLE ONLINE IF YOU DONT HAVE THE MONEY!

What a horribly selfish and dishonest person. She has the choice to leave ucla and go to a different university that offers marketing but she rather sit there and whine that ucla isn’t giving her everything she wanted. what a child
