Question
i've been looking into colleges and trying to prepare myself for choosing a university.  my problem is that i want to go into graphic design AND have some business in there as well.  i cant seem to find one that has both in the tennessee/mid-south region. i wouldnt mind going to a university that just had a good business program if there was an art school near by that could transfer my grades to the university. please help mee! thank you!

Answer
what you'll need to do is to find a smaller college with both programs. Business is pretty general, so most places will have it. If you head off to a university with a distinct school of business, you may have trouble picking up the graphic design stuff because of extensive requirements in  the business and fine arts areas. A smaller school will have one college wide set of these and then you'll be free to take whatever after that. Look at schools like Milligan, Belhaven, Millsaps for starters and examples.
