Major: Finance (This Major's Salary over time)
Anyone who is considering Pace should understand that it is operated as a business rather than an insitution of learning. The School's upper management is driven by the School's ability to drive revenues rather than the School's ability to prepare students for the real world. Thus, capital is allocated to recruitment programs rather than academic programs. As a result, the education quality of the school has suffered and the average Pace student is not as well prepared as their peers (from other schools) upon entering the working world. The finance curriculum is seriously lacking in anything remotely quantitative or challenging. This curriculum, I believe, is a conformation to the sub-par students admitted to the program in an attempt to raise profits. (90/10 ratio of bad to good students)
