Cornell Dyson Vs CMC
Hi all,
I was taken off the waitlist at Cornell Dyson and was wondering if I should attend when compared to CMC (Claremont McKenna). If u saw my previous post I chose CMC over the other schools I got into as I got a little bit of aid that pushed me over the edge. Anyway, Dyson would be around the same as CMC so cost is a non-issue.
Career Goals: HF/VC/PE, preferably hedge fund (am aware I will have to do banking / other finance jobs first, lol). Probably want to pursue an MBA/ CFA eventually.
CMC is very small and on WC so maybe less name recognition, but I really liked their campus (and consortium) and the 4 year ba/ma in finance seems like a big plus. I also really liked the vibe from the campus, and the students seem like the type of people I am. I wouldn’t mind staying in LA, but I definitely want the option to be in NYC and don’t want to be constricted by a school with low east coast “prestige” and bad NYC OCR. 2/3 KKR founders being from here is quite nice though.
I visited Cornell like a year ago, and while the campus was beautiful, it was sort of in the of nowhere and apparently the winters are cold as fuck. But the buildings are great and the curriculum at Dyson is awesome (prefer it to liberal arts) and I think OCR would be better at Dyson, especially for NYC. I liked (some) of the kids there, but not quite the same vibe as CMC. I still think I would enjoy my time here though, especially during fall/spring. It is also closer to home (8hr drive / 2hr flight Vs 6hr flight).
Any ideas on which I should choose?

Dyson. If you want to go to NYC definitely do Dyson. Could go back to west coast for your MBA. But your odds are way better from Dyson. All that said, pick school based on way more than banking jobs. More to life.
