Are there certain electives, concentrations, or minors that you should consider taking because they would provide you with additional knowledge, skills and experiences for your field of interest? If so, add them into your above planning. If you cannot fit them into your degree and graduate by your targeted goal date, would you consider staying for an additional semester? Consult with your Academic Advisor to make sure you correctly are interpreting your degree information.

I feel right now I am right on track as long as I dont have to retake any classes, I will graduate with the degree I want on my target date.

What certification programs and professional association would be important for you to obtain and join to enhance your professionalism?

Maybe I financial club or a Young Entrepreneurs club would help me land an internship.

To advance in your field, will you need to obtain an advanced degree and when would be the best time to pursue that (directly after earning your undergraduate degree or after you gain professional experience in your field)?
I have contemplated law school or a MBA both would look great on a resume, however I feel I would go into the work force before I enrolled at either one, that way I would have some real world experience.

FINAL STEP: Once you have completed this review, please upload this document into your Passport Account within the Academic Planning Challenge. This review is due in Passport by October 30th.
