Santa Clara University

What do you guys think of Santa Clara University. It is a private Jesuit school in Santa Clara, CA (near San Jose). I'm going to be a Finance major here as an undergrad.

guyjer, just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean its not a good school. Although I haven't heard much about it, I'm sure San Francisco has some good opportunities in terms of finance related professions.

 

its decent, fine, pretty campus, gorgeous girls but no recognition nationally, imo.

I work in banking in SF and we pulled some resumes from SCU this past year. It's not a traditional IB school but strong finance/accounting program nonetheless.

 
Funniest

Definitely one of the top 10 schools in all of Santa Clara.
