I go a popular state-chartered university in the south and just got accepted to a Management Major and an International Business Major. I must choose which one i want to study. Under both majors, i'll be minoring in Spanish. What i really want to do is be an entrepreneur and/or work for a large organization under their legal department. I guess what I'm trying to ask is...which major is better if I was going to get a master's in legal business? The only downfall for choosing International Business major is the possibility of NOT getting a master's in something---thus i'm stuck with a degree that requires a lot of travel!?? I need help in weighing the pros/cons to each major!? In the end i want to ultimately do legal business (some sort of law degree)...which one would look good on an application? thanks!

Firstly if you want to do actual "legal business" then a Juris Doctor is what you need and not a Master's in Law. This degree is for those who wish to analize and teach law and not for those who wish to practice law. As for which major, well you run the risk of not getting into a law school with any major you choose, weather it be business, psychology or English. There are no guarantees. However to answer your actual question, I would study management over international business if you want to study corporate law. International business is a relatively poor degree which lacks a lot of substance and you will learn all you need to know about international law during your time in law school. Management is a more solid degree and will give you a better understanding of how a business and the industries actually work.

I am a management major and I love it. You say you want to be an entrepreneur in a legal department? I really don't know what that would entail, but it seems like Management would be a better degree to go with, then you could get your Master's.
