IB in LA - UCLA >= H/S/W?

Hi everyone,

I want to do IB/PE in Los Angeles - I just like the location a lot.

I am an engineering career-switcher, so Will be doing an MBA starting Sep 2018 to break in.

I'm just wondering: would it be of any significant advantage to attend H/S/W? Or will UCLA be as good of an option, or better, considering I am looking for jobs in LA?

Is the long-term brand recognition of H/S/W important for progression in LA? Or are there enough Anderson alum?

Thanks for any insight!

 

80% of IBD Associate+ level roles there are Anderson alum. That being said, if you really have the chance to attend H / S, I would do so. W may be a moot point if you're going into IBD LA anyway. PM for more details.

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
