Advertising, marketing, accounting, automotive, management, sales, finance, and more is what business school has to offer! Though we, as business students, may differ greatly in our (double) majors, there are still quite a few things we can relate to.

1. APA Formatting

Remember when your high school teachers made you put everything into MLA format because that's the only type of formatting colleges use? Yep, nevermind! Only APA formatting at business school! Have fun re-learning how to type your papers!

2. "Can I get your contact information?"

Are you confused as to whether or not that guy or girl is asking for your number to pursue a relationship, or just to get your contact information if they ever need it? You're not alone!

3. Networking, Networking, Networking

At business school, everything is about networking. Every social event put on by the school is a "great way to network!" You need to get to know your classmates mates and teachers around you because they could potentially be business partners, customers, or competition in the future! Basically, make as many friends as you can!

4. If you don't know how to give a proper handshake, you're in the minority.

Most of the time, if you meet a random person around the age of 17-22 and dare to shake their hand (1) they will look at you weird for offering a handshake, and (2) they will give you a gross, lifeless hand and neglect to look you in the eye. Not at business school, though, where handshakes are a primal instinct.

5. Business Casual

For most presentations you're told to dress in 'business casual' attire. Nobody is sure what it means but at least we always make sure to look nice!

6. Job Fairs

If your school doesn't offer at least two job fairs a school year, do you even attend a business college/university?

7. Gen-eds?

You might see your friends talking about how they're excited to finally finish their gen-eds (general educational classes) after two years and pursue their degree. This makes absolutely no sense to you considering you've been taking classes designed specifically for your major since day one.

8. Speech Class

You might hear "Oh, well speech doesn't really matter! It's one of my blow-off classes," from friends at other schools, and burst out laughing. Can you name one business profession that doesn't require good speech abilities?

9. "What do your parents do?"

If your parents don't own their own businesses, you can bet at least 3 of your friend's parents do! You and your friends ask each other these questions (1) just because you're curious and you know there's a chance their parents own the auto-dealership, restaurant, or chain of businesses near you, and (2) you want to know whether or not you could potentially work for your friend's parents. Or with them. Or just learn the tricks of the trade from them.

10. LinkedIn

Welcome to the most important social networking tool for the rest of your life! You might not have known what it was before school, but by the end of your first semester at business school every single one of your teachers will have mentioned it, and you will probably have your own profile set up, too.
