BB recruiting in the SEC
So I'm thinking of transferring... to a southern school. I've spent all my life in the north and I'm just sick of it. I've always loved the south and every time I've been to an SEC school I felt right at home. But now for my question: Do BBs recruit from the SEC? What do BB recruiters think of these schools? Obviously the top academic rank would be Vandy but I absolutely love Auburn... Oh, freshman. small top-50 LAC in upstate New York
If you're a D-I athlete, yeah. Otherwise, no.
Call up the career center in each school and ask them who recruits there. I know big banks located in NC, they recruit students from the south.The top schools in the SEC are GT, Vanderbilt, and Emory.
GT is ACC, and Emory is UAA (same as NYU, UChicago, etc..).
Vandy gets recruited a litte, had a kid I went to HS with go there and now is at IBD Goldman. UGA has some "exclusive" finance club and a lot of those kids get placed in NYC and all over (A PE firm, http://www.roarkcapital.com/, recruits heavily out of this club). I see some UF kids from time to time on the street, Auburn is not heavily recruited at all. I met some guy in equity sales for Morgan Stanley from Auburn a few months back. Your best bet if you go to school down there is get up with Stephens Inc or Sun Trust Robinson Humphrey, which are both respectable. All of the BBs have offices in Atlanta but generally they are very small and either ship people down from NYC or recruit through the "good-ole-boy" system, which you definitely do not fit the bill of... UVA, UNC, and UMiami are ACC and different stories, as they are all recruited by the BBs...
If you're legacy at UVA, this should not be a question. Apply as a transfer for McIntire (which you'd have to apply for after freshman year anyway) and you'll have tremendous recruiting + college atmosphere. Profit.
"small top-50 LAC in upstate New York"
could you be less up-front or obscure?
and BB recruiting for front-office positions just doesn't happen in the SEC
if you run a search for: academics, fun, strong Wall Street network, and south of the Mason-Dixon line, the only schools you'll only end up with Duke, UVA, or Texas (to a certain extent).
I would say UVA is a top contender if you want to move southward. However, there is a pretty significant "douche" contingent at that school. Think orange pants on game day and ray-bans with the sun-glass neck band level of douche.
If you go south of the mason-dixon stick to the ACC. The SEC is tremendous place socially, but a black hole professionally other than if you have an in.
A southern school or an SEC school? No, BBs do not recruit for FO positions at SEC schools except a few at Vandy.
