I am a rising highschool senior looking at where to apply to college. Currently considering Colgate as a safety/target and I have ambitions to go straight to buyside out of college. Would Colgate's Econ program set me up well?
Ha, I'm remembering David Fialkow from General Catalyst giving a speech about he's Colgate's only film major.
Their alumni representation in finance certainly isn't huge but the school itself is like a top 30 liberal arts program so I can't imagine it's a bad thing. As general advice I would suggest you tailor your expectations, things post-graduation rarely go as-planned when you're trying to look from your current vantage point. Just get good grades and enjoy college.
