Potential Transfer to US

Hello, So I am already in the Schulich School of Business on the Canadian side, which I was told to be very prestigious that would be enough to pull an internship at any boutique firm in Toronto. That hasn't been working so much as I thought. I want to be working in the American side as they clearly have more opportunities for employment than Canada does. So after doing so much research on schools in the American side I found only New York Stern School of Business, UCLA Berkeley, Booth School of Business, Ross School of Business. I can't get into any of the ivy league schools because my marks aren't high enough for any of them (3.0 for those wondering). So really my question is what schools would you be suggesting to go to for undergraduate where the end result is ending on Wall Street.

3.0 is not competitive for transfers for any of those schools. Ross average is 3.7-3.9 for transfers, UC (not UCLA) Berkeley says right on their website that they very rarely accept international transfers, and Stern accepts like 2% of external transfers. That's just a few but most target/semi target schools want a 3.5+ especially for an international transfer.

GPA is also why you're not getting interviews for Canadian firms. I would stay at your current school, enroll in as many easy classes as you can and bring your GPA up. Take another year if you have to

Okay, but I dont plan on transferring to those schools this year but actually enrolled in them at the beginning of my third year, im sure by that time I would have brought my GPA up to a 3.5 at least.
