MBB Recruiting at non HYPSM Tier Schools List

Are there any schools that MBB has known or has started to recruit at that doesn't fit the traditional HYPSM school? Are there any LACs besides Amherst and Williams that MBB is known to recruit at? I was curious because I've noticed smaller schools get notices that do not immediately come to mind when thinking of MBB recruiting, and would love to hear about more.

I go to UChicago and have been getting sort of boned in recruiting so far

So yeah maybe not so much UChicago

 

We do infinitely better with FT recruiting compared to internships, might be b/c of Chicago office sizes

 

Not really, SA recruiting has been a shit show even at targets this year it seems. 

 

May be anecdotal, but multiple grad students (~7 of them + myself) in my department (non-business or economics related at all) alone have exited to MBB (some quitting before getting their PhD, and some post-PhD) in the last four years that I've been there (or exited after graduating). It's a very small department too and very few people there want to do consulting, so it's a significant portion. Everyone I know who decided to quit academia and go into consulting ended up getting into MBB. Not sure how that translates to undergrad though, but at the grad level, UChicago seems to place very well among MBB (most I know went to the Chicago office).
