If I plan on getting my Masters does it really matter if my undergrad is general business or finance anyway?

In my opinion no.

One thing that I found in testing out of the business classes was that I really enjoyed the change of pace that the unrelated subject tests offered. There are three 6 credit CLEP's that I think you should have no problem knocking off....and they will help with the general credit requirements that you will need.

Go buy the $25 comprehensive Official CLEP guide. It contains sample/practice tests for around 20 subjects. This will be a good gauge for plotting your lower level credits. After reviewing that book, you may find that you can, with minimal studying, pass the 6 credit Social Sciences & History, 6 credit Humanities, and 6 credit A & I Literature. Those three can knock off 18 credits for around $210 bucks. (the 6 credit CLEP's are the same cost as the 3 credit CLEP's). There are another two 6 credit CLEP's that I think you could benefit from as well. It's a great way to knock off the lower level credits.

Go to the Excelsior site and register. You will then have access to the catalogues which spell out the requirements for each Business Degree and your lower level requirements.

Good luck!
