Non-Target Freshman
Hello everyone. I'm a freshman at a non-target state school in New Jersey majoring in Mathematics of Finance. I've wanted to work on Wall Street since I was in high school. The main reason I went to the non-target state school was really just because of money. I understand that trying to break into Wall Street from a non-target is difficult but feasible if you begin early enough, and so that's what I'm doing.
So far, I have helped co-found an investment management fund at my school which I plan to work on and be a part of throughout my four years. I've also joined a M&A competition at my school which is sponsored by S&P. Other than that, I'm just doing my best to network with faculty and alumni and make as many connections within the industry as I can.
WSO and M&I have been huge aids in helping me figure out an initial plan on how to break into Wall Street from a non-target. That's why I decided I'll finally make an account. Thanks to everyone who's been a help so far.
Sound like you are on the right track. Stay motivated and enjoy college mate.
I was a non-target and your resume sounds a million times better than mine. The people I know like you tended to make it into BB firms. Keep it up, make sure you have the knowledge to back up the creds, and you'll get what you're looking for.
