Attempt transfer to UCLA or Cal for MBB?
Hi! So I am a high school senior that is going to UCSB as an Econ major. However, I know that UCSB is not the best college for MBB recruiting (there's like a tiny bit, I hear). I recognized that some UCSB students wind up transferring to UCLA or UC Berkeley. I will aim for a 3.9+ GPA whether I wind up transferring or not, but do you think it is worth it to try? I would apply as a Math/Econ major at UCLA and UC Berkeley I don't know. I'm asking for advice so that I can plan ahead. Advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Yes, definitely transfer if you can. MBB places a lot more emphasis on target schools.
Also, UCB >> UCLA for MBB recruiting (and finance in general), but to be honest both places aren't really top targets when you look at the placements per capita (e.g., UCB has similar absolute number of placements as other top schools, but with 4x the student body). I would also recommend on shooting some transfer apps to some top privates if money isn't an issue.
