Villanova or Ohio State
For undergraduate in Finance. Trying to get into IB or Consulting. Tuition is the same in my case, so that doesn’t matter.

Ehh kinda a crap shoot here. Plenty of NOVA and OSU students place into IB and both I would say are at best a semi-target. It’s probably just a matter of what school you like better if I’m going to be honest.
I know IB students at both and they place very good out in Chicago or NYC so it’s up to you
I’m not familiar with OSU, but all else equal, nova is closer to NY and has a bunch of boutiques that take interns
You will have much more fun at Ohio state and your employment outcome will likely be the same
Villanova doesn't place. You're better off throwing your money into a fire.
villanova completely fabricates their data about placements. don't waste your money and time on grad school
