This post is rather misleading since Oxbridge and LSE are top targets within Europe and APAC. Plus students from those unis tend to recruit in EMEA and APAC regions but not North America due to visa restrictions, not to mention salary in EMEA, taking London as an example, is relatively lower than the States so it's not a fair post over here
Also ucl being the same tier as the rest you just mentioned is just crazy lol
UCL is a joke. Every sane person knows that UCL is a degree mill school designed to milk money out of intls. You can just walk into UCL and only delusional losers who firmly believe that silly international ranking gives them the magic recruiting power go to UCL.
Well I have little knowledge about finance recruiting in Europe and APAC since none of my friends wants to work there. I consolidated the list based on the consensus among my peers who attended U.S. target schools and landed BB positions in the U.S, APAC and EU target schools don’t compare to North American schools in terms of opportunities and compensation—the gap is just laughable. In fact, no one from my high school chose Oxbridge over a US T25
Since you’re only targeting US recruitment doesn’t mean the US T25 are better than the rest lol. You should know that US banks always prioritise students studying at US unis and some banks even state US unis as a requirement, which is already a barrier to international students. I’m currently at an Ivy and all people I know do agree some unis like Oxbridge/lse/imperial clear
3/10 ragebait.
LSE and Imperial being behind all those mickey mouse names in B tier lol
The UK job market has become miserable, even for LSE graduates, Due to differences in the recruiting process, no UK school can truly be considered a "genuine" target. Even if you land a job, you're essentially stuck in Europe, as an europoor, earning half compared to U.S counterparts while facing higher taxes(lol). Only widening the pay gap over time. Even the top university graduates earn £38K on average(bigger lol) since the career outside of high finance is nonexistent.
You clearly don’t have any sense of EMEA saying their pay is lower. Yes, let’s say London is lower than the US but IB in Switzerland pays MUCH better than the States lol, with base salary at CHF 130,000 (USD 145k) with significantly lower tax. And which unis they recruit from? lse, oxbridge and european targets. And if you don’t speak at least one of their official languages, German at least, you’re prolly cooked
Also aside from those S tiers, Oxbridge clearsss the rest no cap
The median salary of oxford fresh graduates is 44k USD. U must be joking. London is a HCOL city with 'higher' taxes. What an abomination. US level cost of living combined with Asian level comp with EU level taxes!
lol as I said tell me you’ve never been to the UK without telling me you’ve never been to the UK, not to mention i’m wondering if you actually met a single lse/oxbridge/imperial students. You had no idea about their common placements and I see you’re only relying on unsolicited stats. Trust me I did my undergrad in the UK and I can guarantee you the actual median salary is WAY above that. A significant large portion of them ended up at IBs, consulting and other high-paying jobs and for what’s considered high in the UK is just a slight difference from the US lmao
Wonder what caused OP to become like this. Unfortunate.

Coming from someone at UCLA, I think UT Austin and USC should be in our tier as well (or at the very least McCombs & Marshall)
Laughable, but it's why we love you Americans.
Gauging a "global target" should not be based on "NYC placement" but rather on placement in a neutral area — the Middle East would be a good example. Let's say a ME SWF was to hire 5 graduates to launch a new global investment strategy, without restrictions for recruitment: from which universities would they hire?
I highly doubt Duke, Georgetown, or Ross would rank above Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial, or Bocconi...
Dont cry europoor, one of my HS seniors literally went to Ross instead of Oxbridge LOL.
Sire, this is a Wendy’s.
This is one of the rare ranking for which "prestige" should really apply ie how known is your school talking to a random person from a random place in the world and Oxbridge is clearly on the top spot with this approach right next to Harvard/Stanford/MIT. People outside of NA will know max 5 schools below S+ in your list.
Comparing salary prospect without consideration for the COL & share of major is very misleading unless you only took the average salary for finance/econ studs. What a surprise, a business school has a higher avg salary than a uni with a bunch of grads going into philosophy, art and geography
This is clearly missing a few French school and maybe Spanish ones. Bare minimum is to add HEC and X. Likely missing some asian schools too.
LSE is joked around because of how much of a target it is in Europe and you put it in C+ lol be serious or call this US ranking not Global ranking if you have no clue about anything outside of the US. Regarding the argument of you know X who took school A instead of B, we all have our own criteria and location is a huge one
I went to WashU and Oxbridge and I have to say this is such a shit ranking
Op does sounds like korean. Idk why but they bash UK unis quite harshly.
Bro is out of his goddam mind
You forgot UC Berkeley
