Hey Austin,
Good question, I actually was in school at Bowling Green State University for Sports Management for 4 years and at the time it was considered to be one of the top colleges for it behind Indiana University. What I would recommend is concentrating on one area in particular, this can be where you want to end up eventually, for me it was Sports Marketing. Classes itself will depend on the school but management and marketing classes will be the most popular. I would also recommend looking at another language like Spanish, it can help you go a long way in the future. Lastly, you want to get your name out there and start applying for internships as soon as possible. A lot of students have to change majors because they can’t get an internship in this field so the sooner the better. Hopefully this helps!
