IU Kelley Econ vs UVA Econ

IU Economic consulting (average salary 2019) - $73,000

UVA Econ (average salary 2019) - $61,000

Around 80% of students reported their salary at both schools.

Also look at the employment reports...

IU Economic consulting (% of students doing consulting in major) - 67%

UVA Econ (% of students doing consulting in major) - 25%.

Kelley is the clear winner for Econ.

However, go to Mcintire if you can get in, as it is a better business school. It is important to distinguish UVA Mcintire from UVA Econ.

You just copy and paste my thread, but that's ok lol.

Don't tell them the truth bro! The blood-sucking, prestige obsessed interns don't want to hear that an IU student outperforms them without slaving away during high school.

Also, the last guy on the thread I made posted complete misinformation about both the school's employment reports and got voted most helpful. They don't want to hear it man it hurts them too much.

 

Alias eaque sed mollitia distinctio. Numquam nihil omnis exercitationem id. Consequatur et cum enim sint.
