[Need Advice] WUSTL MSFQ to Banking, have sequence of banking internships

Hey everyone,

I got accepted to the MSFQ program at WUSTL. Here are my details:

Career Interest : IB/Corp Fin Program Choice : Chose the MSFQ due to STEM designation (want to work in the US plus the MSFQ is 17 months with room for an internship). Undergraduate in Quant Finance (In London) so I can handle the MSFQ curriculum but otherwise absolutely no interest in doing AM/Quant roles. Work Exp : Upcoming IB internship in London (prior to starting at WUSTL) and prior boutique IB internship

I've read the 2015 and 2016 placement stats for MSFQ and only 2015 had a 20% placement in IB, with 0% for 2016 and not surprisingly, the MSFQ traditionally places into AM/Quant roles.

What are my odds of getting into IB/Corp fin through WUSTL or the MSFQ, considering my work exp/CV shows a clear history and demonstrated interest in IB/Corp fin and not AM/Quant.

Thanks!
