Investment Banking and Consulting

I am applying to following universities:

Alliance Manchester Business School

Durham University Business School

University of Edinburgh Business School

University of Leeds Business School

University of Birmingham Business School

UCD Smurfit School of Management

Are these universities good enough to get a good job as an international student as I am not Targeting MBB or Bulge Bracket Banks for my career?

I want to get into Big 4/ Accenture Consulting/ Oliver Wyman or Tier 2 IB jobs.

These schools do not prevent you from such a position - just make sure post-study visa and potential visa sponsorship is not an issue and crush the preparation aspect.
