georgetown SFS vs northwestern for IB
interested in nyc IB after undergrad (fam lives in nyc). several NU students have told me that northwestern is not a target for about half the BBs and EBs, but that’s also bc only ~40 students per class genuinely recruit for finance. not sure if students at georgetown sfs are equally successful as msb students in terms of placement in IB.
I'll just say NU placed REALLY well this year and last year including a bunch of top PEs like Blackstone, GTCR, and out of those 40 students who recruited about 25 placed into BB, EB, or megafund PE and the rest still going to strong MM banks like William Blair, Houlihan Lokey. If you go to NU and recruit pretty seriously for NYC there should be no problem getting a good offer, since there's so little competition coming from the school.
Northwestern is highly regarded in academics, but for banking recruiting it’s Georgetown hands down. Major target at every BB and the majority of the EB (CVP, Lazard, PWP, and recently Evercore). BX did OCR at Georgetown last year. You can certainly make it at Northwestern, but Georgetown has a way larger presence on the street and the location advantage.
