Vanderbilt, Rice, WashU, or Emory for finance

[Anonymous]

Umich doesn't make the percapita list on the college transitions website.
Likely because it's too large.

Anybody know how Emory became what it is in finance? Because it wasn't like this 20 years ago when I went to school. It was definitely Duke, then UVA, then Vanderbilt for southern schools.

Sounds like you’re begging the question

None of these school are targets. They are semi targets at best. Regional banks hire from these school with a few exceptions.

OK, so assuming that is true, how terrible is that fate? If you're a finance guy at a "regional bank" you are not making NY money (but you're not paying NY cost of living either) but you're not living in a van down by the river either. Right?

It is not true at all. But yes you are right on the outcome.

Sorry but it was. Maybe not 50 years ago but 20 yes.

Emory is 18 for wall street placement
Vandy 23
WashU 28.
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?

They are just searching LinkedIn.

No it wasn't. This is recent. As banks became more woke, they went to schools that were also more woke as well.

NYU BC would be better options

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

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.

Keep in mind per capita for the ranking is of the pop of the entire university, not the undergrad business school

Not all schools have undergrad business schools. So the whole school is fair.

Vanderbilt's job placement isn't as good as many think it would or should be, and WashU seems to be declining. So Rice for Tech and Emory for everything else.

Not quite. You have to take all data into consideration. Per capita data for this metric only begins to makes sense if a university doesn’t have a business school.
