oh well, its something to put on my resume i guess...
 
And college grads get manager jobs at mcdonalds, not the normal crappy jobs..... they have a degree so people know they can be responsible or something.
 
Finance is the money major in business. Finance majors can expect $40,000-$60,000 per year in the private sector with only a BSBA. Other business majors (excepting Accounting, which essentially has parity with Finance) tend to be in the $30,000-$40,000 range.

I hate to say it, because I know that there are a lot of people who are interested in Marketing and who go into Marketing because they love it, but there are also a lot of people in Marketing who are only there because they didn't want to put the effort into Finance or Accounting. Because of them, there is a glut of Marketing majors so your job pool is a little over-full of applicants.

This is all, however, based upon the forecasts I have seen while looking at the same situation from the same perspective.

Anyone have any idea what I'd be looking at with a BAPR (Bachelor Public Relations?) I've got 3 or 4 semesters left and will probably have a 3.5ish GPA from a public university.
 
Fsck managing. If you're great with people, sell! Of course you'll be unhappy to see that you didn't even need that BSBA degree in order to make 6 figures, and there will always be more talented sales people who didn't graduate from college making more money than you somwhere.
 
it's not "how much should i expect" it's "how much they are willing to give you since its a PITA to find a job right now."

<-- making under 30k and i graduated from freaking UCLA. i need a new job!
