Schools

Hi,

I'm transfering schools this fall from Pace University in Manhattan (#rd tier according to US News "Rankings".) I'm going to either Hunter College in Manhattan or Brooklyn College, both are CUNYs. While Hunter is regarded higher by the general public, Brooklyn is 45 mins closer to where I live. Will going to BK College hurt my chances of getting into I Banking? I'm thinking not since its not as if I'm choosing it over NYU.

Someone could offer me some advice?

I'm transfering to a CUNY because I cant afford Pace, even though I'm working full-time, and I need to attend a cheaper school.

Hunter and Brooklyn won't help you AT ALL in finance. Baruch will be a step up though. Change your transfer to Baruch immediately.

 

Here is why. I know a decent amount of people in banking that went to Baruch. I know NONE that went to BK or Hunter.
