Non-Target Undergrad School NY, NJ
Out of St. Johns, Baruch, Hofstra, Stonybrook, and Rutgers which one is looked at as the highest regarded in the finance industry? or any other non-targets in this area you may be familiar with?
baruch is probably the best of those for finance recruiting, but honestly of that group the "best" is whichever one gives you a better chance of transferring to a real target after freshman year
If you are talking about finance in general, and not necessarily IB, then Baruch is solid and a strong target for ops and control. If you are talking about banking, then you are going to have a great deal of work cut out for you regardless, and the key will be in the networking and club involvement. Out of the schools you've listed, I'd probably go with Hofstra or Baruch (Baruch is in NYC, which is helpful to a degree in terms of winter and spring internship ops).

I have a friend at St. Johns who got recruited at GS. So, I'm guessing there is some sort of presence there..
Unfortunately, it's Ops. Still, he has GS on his resume and already has an "in" with them plus the connections he is going to build from the position.
Just like what you said, its what he is going to make of it. I'm sure he'll put in the effort for what his goals are. The only thing that may be working against him is that he is in the Jersey office......
