Ib from TCU

Based on the most helpful WSO content, it is not impossible to get into New York IB from TCU, but it is more challenging compared to other schools. TCU, along with other Texas/Energy-focused schools like Rice University, Baylor, Texas A&M, Southern Methodist, and Tulane, is known for placing students primarily in the South, especially in Dallas or Houston. While there are opportunities for NYC placements, they are less common, and many students from these schools choose to stay in the South due to factors like lower cost of living and comparable pay.

For better chances at NYC IB, schools like UT Austin (McCombs) and SMU are more recognized and have stronger networks for placements outside of Texas. However, it is important to note that breaking into NYC IB from any school requires significant effort in terms of grades, networking, studying, and interviewing.
