Pitt Senior Business Student

Hi! My name is Jenny, and I am graduating a semester early in December 2026. I have been in the business school since freshman year. However, I am knowledgeable in other areas of study, since my roommates are in different majors (exercise science, psychology, medical, etc.). I will be available for in-person tours starting August 17, but I am always available for a virtual chat!

Describe your college experience

I came into Pitt as an Accounting and Finance major. I changed my major multiple times within the business school until I found two that I loved best! I currently live off-campus in an apartment, but I lived in dorms my freshman year.

Tip for future students

Taking summer classes at community colleges saved me money and allowed me to explore different majors. Using Rate My Professor has helped me enroll in the best courses possible. Joining clubs freshman year is a great way to meet new people!

Favorite class

My favorite class I have ever taken was Programming Essentials for Business Students. Even though I took it my freshman year, I still use the skills taught in that course to this day at my current internship! It also made me interested in pursuing a major that is technology-based.

Career goals

I plan on working at Verizon full-time within technology operations. I also plan to get my masters, and hope to own my own business!

Ideal way to spend a free night

I enjoy exploring Pittsburgh and trying different restaurants. I also love spending time with my roommates.
