Illinois Institute of Technology
I'm a senior in high school, and I have been offered to play a sport at Illinois Institute of Technology and a full ride. I know this is a non-target, and I looked up online and couldn't find a single person from the undergrad school there who went into IB.
The only benefits of going here may be that it's free, I play a sport, and it's tech-based, which could allow me to get a Finance plus tech degree. From what I was told, about 25 undergrads on campus major in finance, and 2% of the undergrad population major in business. This means only the athletes do so.
I thought I could go here for one year, max two years, after getting a 4.0 and amassing as many business extracurriculars as possible, as well as playing a sport, then transfer to a school down the street like UChicago or Northwestern.
I have the academics to get into target schools, and based on what I've heard from others, I should probably get into either NYU or UChicago academically.
Please let me know what I should do as I need to decide soon.
... just bite the bullet and go to a target all the way. Trust me, even transferring recruiting will still be more difficult than just starting at a target. You will be behind into getting top clubs... certain alumni will view as inferior... weaker freshman internships and as stupid as it is those are starting to matter. Go to a target.
I appreciate it
Did my dm go through? There's been some issues lately of messages not sending
No brother, I haven’t gotten anything.
so you play an esport?
Baseball
ah misunderstood and thought the sport was tech based. agree with other poster that if you can get into a target do it. transferring after 2 years will already miss the main window for IB recruitment, and while 1 year-> transfer is fine you're saving 1 year tuition and losing access to alot of club stuff+freshman/soph internships
