Transferring Universities
If one would go to a "non target" university for undergrad for 2 years, but then transfer to a target school, will this be considered "worse" than going to a target school for all 4 years, or will banks not care?

They'll see what you list on your resume. Transcripts may come into play on background checks, but offers are usually out by the time that happens.
Transfer if you feel it's: A. A step up academically/prestige-wise B. Better fit in terms enjoying your life
Well, its not for me, its for a friend. But thatnks for the reply. But, since he will have a target school on his resume, will that be enough?
Either way he'll be fine... unless he gets sub-par grades in that one semester, in which case he may want to list a high GPA from previous college.
i think it could be hard since if he is transferring after two years, he'll only have one semester of grades when applying for summer analyst positions. if it's for full time you're asking, then i think he'll be ok.
Dude...
REgardless of he gets into IB or not, if you transfer to an Ivy...no one will ask you 'did you transfer' when you're 30.
But remember this, people don't give a fuck about your school that much after your first 2 jobs... its called 'experience' thats what you want.
Good target school = Good experience = Good future opportunities
Understand the logic my friend.
I transferred after 2 years, and its very easy to sell how incredibly motivated you are to achieve, succeed, blah blah. Definitely easy to spin.
