I was a Math/Econ double major with a minor in applied statistics. I did the finance path for 6 years before choosing to go back and do a boot camp. I've done very well since then, although it's likely due to my educational background. None of this describes the average student, but I think my case reinforces your point about opportunities. If the program didn't exist, I'd still be trading equities and contributing very little to society.
