Help: BU Questrom vs. UIUC Gies vs. CMU Tepper vs. NYU CAS
I'm a high school senior torn between these options. I like IB because the prospect of broking deals excites me. But quant/trading also appeals to me because, in high school, I was in charge of the portfolio of our investment club for 3 years. So I'm open to see where life takes me.
Questrom & Gies: Typical finance major.
Tepper: Plan to be concentrated in finance with a minor in computational finance or data science. With financial aid,
NYU CAS: Probably be doing applied math with a data science minor.
The cost of attendance will be similar.
Go with CMU (maybe NYU). BU would be considered a tier or 2 below these in reputation
Thank you very much for the comment. I'll take a close look at quant/s&t then. Where should I look for companies that usually hire quant undergrads: HF, Asset Management, Equity Research, or Consulting?
Any of the big banks will have S&T roles (Goldman, JPM, MS, etc). Quant shops are pretty tough to get out of undergrad, but I think CMU’s computational finance program places very well. Look up “Quant Trading” firms to get a more extensive list, but Optiver, Jane Street, and Citadel come to mind
This is super helpful - thank you!
