Regional Recruiting

What are some Undergrad or MBA programs that have really strong regional recruiting to boutiqe banks, smaller MM banks, regional BB offices, or anything?

Doesn't have to be T10 or anything, just maybe under-the radar schools that have good regional placement?

Like
Rice
IU Kelley maybe?

 

Look for cities that have a sizable amount of boutique/mmkt banks and then look for the most prominent school in that area.

Rice/ UT Austin are good for TX/Down south, IU Kelly solid for Indiana/midwest. Olin would be good for Seattle. UIUC would be good for Chicago.

 

For IB, Houston has much more than Dallas due to the energy space.

Dallas though has far more when it comes to HF/AM though.

Agree with the Rice/G-town/Vanderbilt/Emory comments. UT-Austin is above those from a rankings stand point but obviously exit opportunities are mostly in TX. I have barely heard of or not heard of those other schools.

 

Thanks everyone, and I'm not sure after those 2 which has the most...

These are just some other schools that I like for undergrad, just curious how they do for BB regionally or regional boutiques probably (Im not really dead-set on anything specific)

Boston College Tufts Wake Forest Hamilton College Carleton College Davidson College(other Liberl arts schools)

Anyone know how these stand in comparison to UNC, Emory, Ect?

 
Best Response

Piper Jaffray recruits at Carleton, which makes sense because it's in Minnesota. But if you can get in there, you probably have a good shot at Tufts or BC.

The feel I got from Hamilton (lots of relatively conservative prep school types) leads me to believe there's a decent network to be utilized there, but beyond that I know nothing about the school.

If you go to a top 15 LAC, do well there, and build a network, you'll have a shot at making something happen at a BB.

Rankings wise UT is higher, but it barely places any outside TX. It's very regional. Something comparable to it would be UNC.

UT is ranked higher than Rice, Emory, Gtown and Vandy?

in what exactly?

In MBA categories, probably everything, but we were speaking of "overall".

Most recent US News/BW/Forbes rankings, respectively....

University of Texas 18 21 11 Rice University 38 n/r 47
Emory University 22 23 22 Georgetown 19 nr nr Vanderbilt University 33 30 30

how would you rank these schools?

IU Kelley BC Miami Ohio UNC Vandy Emory Tufts WFU

In respect to their areas regionally?

IU Kelley and Miami Ohio aren't top undergrads overall, but have good business programs. At least IU does, I don't know much about Miami Ohio. Bear Stearns used to recruit a lot of IU kids.

The rest of the schools are good regionally, WFU is prob a notch below UNC for the midatlantic.
