I go to one and would say definitely don’t go there it has zero Banking culture

 

There is so much more to school than just banking placement. All of these schools have wildly different cultures. Consider what you are actually interested in a college before jumping to a decision. 

 

Fucking hell mate, be more polite when asking for help. That being said, judging by your name, W&L, and to a lower extent Nova, probably wouldn't be the best experience (Heavy drinking culture, issues with racism etc.). Never heard of Union so make of that what you will. Babson is decent but I'd take Fordham, being in NYC is a huge plus. On another note, are you the guy who said he wanted to be the Harvey Specter of Investment Banking?
