[quote=Anonymous]Richmond is not as good as Richmond boosters make it out to be. For example, consulting firms recruit there, but it's historically been mostly the Big 4 - basically accounting firms that consult as a sideline - and not MBB. They had some placement at McKinsey this past year and put it on the front of a mailing we received, but I don't know it was more than one kid. MBB do recruit at UVA regularly.

Like UVA, it's the kind of school where you really want to be in the business school rather than arts and sciences for recruiting. Ivies, it doesn't matter as much.

Unlike UVA, you don't have to apply into the business school after starting in arts and sciences. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. It's good because you won't get stuck not in the business school. It's bad because it's perceived as less competitive/prestigious.

Notice I've been comparing UR to UVA. Most of my comparisons have been unfavorable, but you can make a fair comparison. The same isn't true of Elon. It's an order of magnitude (or two) below both.[/quote]
