NYU transferring - Requirements?

I plan on going to a school in Florida like UF or UCF for my bachelors in finance and then I want to transfer to NYU to get my MBA. Does anybody know the requirements for this? Idk if my ACTs and SATs will be exactly up to par with their standards but my grades will be very good and hopefully up to their standards. It seems like you can only get into a good hedge fund if got go to harvard, Stanford or something like that. Is that true because that's the way that I perceive it. Is NYU a good target school for some good hedge funds? Thank you for your input.

You don't transfer from undergrad to grad school. You finish your undergrad and then you go work. Then you can go get your MBA

Can you explain more please?

 

I really joined this site to learn. I want to learn the ropes on how to be successful in this business. In the investment banking/hedge fund businesses. I'm a senior in high school and I've been thinking about it for a while and this is what I want to do with my life. Hopefully all the experienced people(like yourselves)on this site can help me.

You're making a good decision to start looking into these things now. You have a lot more reading to do though. Check these forums frequently and see what others who are years ahead of you are asking questions about and reporting back on. Also, I would encourage you to start looking at what kinds of opportunities you can get with different schools in FL. UCF and UF are not viewed the same in terms of prestige, but for an in state resident with bright futures are relatively similar in cost. Send me a PM if you have any other questions and I'll be happy to help.
