Kelly vs Rutgers vs Warrington

Hi All,

This is my first post on this forum so hoping some of you may be able to help me answer this question.

I am in the process of applying to schools to receive my MBA in Finance and I have gotten into the above schools mentioned so far (Indiana, Rutgers and Florida). I know these are not target schools (by any means), and will require a great GPA, amazing networking, and good work experience to hopefully even get a shot at an interview with an Investment Bank. I am very stressed out about which one to pick, I think my top choice is Indiana, then Florida and then Rutgers. When reading some forums I saw that you will only be able to get into investment banking through Indiana if you go through the investment banking workshop? Im not sure which school to pick for my MBA.

Is anyone able to help give some insight on which school I should pick? My decision date is approaching.

Thanks to all for the insight!

The workshop is for undergrad Kelley students, but there is a Capital Markets Academy (https://kelley.iu.edu/programs/full-time-mba/academies/capital-markets/…) that claims to place some MBA students into IB. It will still be an uphill battle because there are typically fewer associate positions and they are reserved for Top 5/10 programs.

I haven't met a single UF or Rutgers MBA that is in banking.
