Emory is 18 for wall street placement

Rice doesn't make the T30.
Emory is better than it seems as Atlanta has a lot of small investment shops with 20 or less people which don't get counted for this study.

College Transition? Is this site even trustworthy?

Very, their methodology is sound, and it's well understood in the industry Emory is one of the best for investment banking. This just confirms it.

Agree. And if you do use this site at least post the correct rankings: Emory 22 Vandy 23 WashU 25. Pretty close to each other so just go where you think you’d be most happy

If it was as easy as just “go to x school” for the job, the OP probably wouldn’t have his question. It seems like they’re trying to gain admission through ED at a school That is likely a reach or a strong target.

Then ED at Georgetown U.

Vandy's student body has a woke element, but the administration has done a good job not caving into "demands" and putting up with other nonsense from woke students who just want to be disruptive and have their 15 minutes.

WUSTL I would say is actually the most apolitical of the four schools mentioned. Emory to an extent as well.

Rice is easily the wokest of the group. The social scene is built around Hogwarts-style "residential colleges" instead of a traditional Greek system so no one can be excluded, and the websites for each of those colleges have statements supporting BLM.

Would you rather their websites have link to “Trump Bible” sales pitch? Would Rice then pass your “no woke” test?

I would prefer no political statements on a residential college website.

None of these school are targets. They are semi targets at best. Regional banks hire from these school with a few exceptions. NY banks have pockets of graduates from all of these schools. The graduates worked very hard to secure these spots with perfect grades. If you want Morgan, JPM and/or Goldman - youll need to be the next level up. None of these schools send grads there (other than a few exceptions).

I gave the per capita ranking. Overall numbers don't matter. You need to see what you DCs chances of getting this type of
Job is.
There's also peakframeworks.com, which has Emory in the lead with this group of schools.

This isn't true. Emory is a low target along with Berkeley, Williams, Amherst etc. Also there's plenty of Goldman Sachs workers from all of these schools, and I know IB students from Emory that had a 3.3-3.5.

The data just really show that these four schools are below the Harvards and Whartons and that they are all quite similar in finance job placement. Seems to me it is much more important to pick the school where the kid would be most happy instead of basing choice on some little known website

Sounds like the child just wants to make money and has no interest in learning or broadening his mind. As a result, I don’t see any of these schools accepting him.

Me too! That’s why I wrote above response. Because the previous poster specifically mentioned “BLM” being on websites and concluded Rice is “woke”. By the way, do you prefer not seeing the word “woke” on a residential college website. Because, isn’t characterizing a college or a group of people, an organization as “ woke” a political statement?

Run the NPC but I bet you won't get a dime.

Especially if you have assets. Nada.

Indeed. He should state in his essays that he wants to go into IB/PE and let’s see how it all turns out.

Yes - it is true. As it says very clearly - there are exceptions. But it will take exceptional grades, grit and connections to burst through into New York Bulge Bracket banks. Sure they can work at regional banks but not the Tier 1 and Tier 2. Youre not beating top 10 and diversity candidates. It aint happening.

Here's another, both websites.are.well known within finance and investment banking communities. Of course theyre.lower than Harvard, which school isnt.OP is clearly trying to get into the best option they can with their stats.
