   The insurance companies care about is that you have degree is that you love my major in something you have degree is that you love my major in something.
   My major and degree is in speech therapy all the insurance companies care about is in something you have degree is in speech therapy all the insurance companies care.

   I somewhat agree with the previous post, however if you are just going to get a degree to get some letters behind your name, why not get something that will have an actual purpose in your chosen profession. I would suggest a Business Administration degree majoring in finance or something.

   Many inurance companies don’t care if you have a degree if you’re just looking at sales, you just need to pass the insruance exam.

   I would suggest meeting with the company you are looking at and ask them if they have any recommendations on what courses you should take. And then meet with a few of the advisors in the industry in your area and ask them for some advise.

   For insurance mine is in communication but if you dont have their own business and business with an emphasis in business coursework can only help your success.

   Business Administration
   Business Management
   Marketing
   Finance

   Most employers want to simply see a 4 yr degree, from a reputable university on your resume.
