I did this back in college and it was 100% worth it. Soon after I was accepted I decided not to go into banking but the new school on my resume opened more opportunities for me. I suggest grinding it out at whatever college and stacking up your resume for 1-2 years with ECs and really high GPA
It’s seems like the best option thb, law school and Med school are just not for me and the exit ops out of ib seem great. The pay is on par with successful lawyers and surgeons even though u don’t need to attend post grad other than a mba (which isn’t even hard to pursue).
I don’t want to be critical — I’m on WSO myself, and I don’t think IB is a bad choice at all. But I also think it is worthwhile to be open-minded as a high schooler. While I trust you’ve been thoughtful about this, I think you’re too young to positively shut-out all other ideas about careers.
Nevertheless, after this rant, I do feel that I owe you a real answer to your question. UF is probably one of the best public schools in the nation, MSF placement is solid, the network is strong, and the school is large and diverse enough that you’ll find your way socially/culturally. The IBW at Indiana isn’t high-probability, and outside of that, you’d be better off at UF. It’s a very prestigious school. Best of luck!

Think IU Kelley IBW has a stronger name. Based on what people say the IBW has really strong pipelines to BB/EB
“Dead set on banking for years now”
“High school senior”
May I ask why?
