Have to chose between a few schools, which is best for investment/corporate banking or finance in general?

U of Georgia

UW Madison

Ohio State U

Miami U (Ohio)

Any information relevant to these schools for IB is helpful. I know they all have their IB cohorts that place really well, but I also want good options if that doesn't happen for me.

I do have Kelley on my list - just wanted to learn about which of my secondary possibilities is best.

I'd probably do UGA - they have pretty strong placement and it's a fun school. Easy to get fresh/soph or even offcycle internships with Atlanta close by. I would personally even take it over Kelley, IU is a real risk without IBW which is reducing its class size so will end up even more competitive. The UGA cohort is nowhere near that competitive and I see their alums all over the street.

The others will be solid choices too, so if you have a strong preference towards one school weight that over placement.
