Emory
Vandy for the strong pipelines to NYC. WashU is on the decline. Rice if he wants Energy PE but it's not as strong on the Street. |

Emory>Vandy>WashU>>Rice
Rice is decent but doesn't compare. Also energy IB doesn't pay as well as the others. |

I am in PE and I have no idea what you mean. what is a PE investor? Do you mean a partner or the like at a PE shop? |

| Save yourself some money and go to UVA/McIntire. They’re ranked above all of OP’s schools for PE. |

| WashU has a highly ranked undergraduate business school |

Fine school --- not the question and not better for PE. Rankings are a bit off. |

Rice would be very good for the Texas energy sector. Traditionally, that's all been Rice grads. But these days, students don't really go to Rice as a pipeline to IB or Wall Street generally. Maybe some quants. But that's not really why people go to Rice.
From the others, Vanderbilt is exceptionally good for consulting. A little less so for IB. I'd still pick it over Emory or WashU. |

Go to a Wall Street pipeline school. For DMV area, it is Georgetown University and trailing it behind is UVA/McIntire.
Signed Dad of a newly minted IB (not from either school). |
