UCI vs. Boston University for undergrad
I was recently admitted to UCI for business economics and BU for business administration and management with a concentration in finance. At this point I would much rather go to BU, but tuition for UCI would be a lot less expensive since I am an in-state student, although I haven't received my financial aid package for BU yet. My main goal is to have a career in finance, and I do plan on pursuing an MBA in the future. How would you compare the two schools, especially in terms of job placement/recruiting for a job in finance? I'd assume Questrom would be better due to its location and the fact that I would actually be studying finance, but I know it's not that high up there in comparison to many of the other east coast schools, so I've heard a lot of mixed information and I'm not sure if it would be worth it if the tuition is a lot higher and the job placement/recruiting isn't exceptionally better than UCI's. Any responses would be greatly appreciated!
Go to BU if you want a finance job. More connections and closer to the NY. UCI is known for pre-med programs or engineering.
After asking an admissions rep in person from UCI for info regarding which companies recruit at UCI for finance and for info regarding finance careers from UCI, I later received an email with a link to Indeed for Orange County and a half-hearted mention about "Handshake" where there are jobs posted for students. So...Take that for what it is. Go to BU if you want to work in finance.
