Is UVA Worth it

Hi monkeys,
 

I’m a British student with the main goal of working in a BB IB firm in the US, with the eventual goal of making it to the buy-side (preferably PE). I have been accepted into UVA and as I’m not American I don’t know the schools reputation. Is the school reputable in the finance world and is it worth paying the almost crippling tuition costs. Thanks everyone.
