Cornell CAS (Econ) vs Fordham Gabelli for Breaking into IB
Hi wso. I'm a high school senior who is looking to break into IB in NY after college. I would like your input as to which school is the best option for an aspiring FO banker.
I have 2 main options: Cornell college of arts and sciences or Fordham Gabelli. Cornell would cost 80k+/yr to attend all costs included vs Fordham which would be close to zero. I like Fordham better w/ regards to location, lifestyle, academic year internships, but have some obvious reservations about forgoing an ivy education and target school in Cornell. I'm waitlisted at Stern, UNC Chapel Hill, and Vanderbilt, which may also turn into options. I also got into Wesleyan, BC, BU, for what its worth. These would all be full price, btw. From what I hear Gabelli's program is improving, they have a strong alumni network, and internship opportunities in NYC make it a decent choice, and the low price seals the deal imo. I could afford Cornell, but with Fordham as an option, I'd rather graduate with an extra ~300k. What do you recommend? Thanks.
I don't go to either of these schools, but I know for a fact Cornell is a big target for IB. If you want to do IB go to Cornell. Simple as that. Fordham unfortunately does not really compare.in terms of quality of education, alumni network, and recognition.
Cornell with no doubt if you can afford.
