Which school is better for getting into Investment Banking? Georgia Tech or The University of Georgia?

Hey guys, I'm a high school senior accepted to these two schools in Georgia and have a scholarship too. I have a choice of picking either one.

Hi NirvanaBateman, any of these discussions helpful:

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

UGA's Corsair society regularly places students into top IB and Consulting firms. Can't speak for consulting, but UGA is definitely a target school for Citi, Suntrust, and a semi-target for JP, GS, etc.

Can't speak for Tech.

At the end of the day, if you think you can break into IB it doesn't matter what school you go to. No matter how good of a school you go to you're going to be competing with thousands of other kids to get the same jobs. Your school won't get you the job.
