Going from EU/UK School to US Banking

Hey guys simple question I was just wondering if you attend a European or UK university is it possible to break into US high finance? Of course I'm sure the answers depends on the school but let's say a school like Bocconi or IE? How about UCL or Bath in the UK? Have there been any successful recruits?
