NU is very underrated. They have been placing well recently and have a lot of smart kids. Sure UVA may produce higher volume but it also has a few multiples more of kids. Evanston isn't all that bad. NU brand is generally better and will serve you beyond IB. Although I see an argument for the college experience that UVA delivers. On average, you'll have more normal friends which does matter when you hit FT as this industry can be tough. Both great schools so congrats but I'd choose NU and wouldn't look back
The thing is I’m transferring because I wasn’t very happy and I just don’t think I’ll be very happy at Northwestern. I have pretty much lived in Evanston for 10 years of my life and like there really is nothing there lol no shade on NU tho
From my understanding northwestern has a specific program/workshop/club that preps for IB so you’ll want to look into that. Although I’m not sure so do your own research.
UVA is kinda club dependent and getting in the clubs can be competitive. Although, I think there’s a decent amount of placements outside of the finance clubs. But caveat here is that many of those people have connections and a previous network. But there’s also a program (I believe called Finance Academy?) that’s pretty much open to everyone and you’ll just have to give it a Google and look from there. Additionally, If you make friends with those in clubs they’ll prolly be willing to help you out and send some resources.
I think as a transfer you’ll need to balance coursework, making friends, joining the necessary clubs, all while prepping recruiting. So this is something to consider. I think likely you won’t really be able to go out that much as it is demanding and I wouldn’t underestimate it.
Pm me if you want to talk more
If you already know you don't want to go to NU, just commit to UVA? Why ask on here, seems like you know the answer
Personally I’d go NU
These other prestige whores saying NU are idiots. Come to UVA and enjoy life. The school won’t be the reason you do or don’t get a banking job.
Agree I don’t want to be depressed in Evanston. I’ve really lived in Evanston for 10 years so Its just kinda too close for me. Really tho I don’t get how UVA vs NU would really matter in an interview (I can always say I turned down NU)
.
obviously go to northwestern by a mile
nice r/transfertotop25 post
No?
Please go to Northwestern
I’d choose NU
