OSU OR INDIANA UNIVERSITY
I have been going back and forth for a while between going to Ohio state or Indiana university. Indiana obviously has a better business school including the IBW but the social scene doesn’t seem different. I live near Ohio state and the fisher futures program is good but less chance to get into a BB or EB. Is it worth sacrificing having a bad college experience to get a good job. Also is fisher futures good from past experiences for you guys?
Im an OSU alum who went through futures. Obviously IU places much better than Ohio State, but unless your on scholarship or have your parents paying for everything, I’d take OSU given the tuition will be 3x less. You’ll still have good opportunities if you network well, and if you end up at a MM, can always lateral after a year. Also IBW is a lot tougher to get into than Futures
Ya I have heard the workshop is insanely hard to get into
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know:
Indiana University (IU Kelley):
Ohio State University (OSU Fisher):
Social Scene and College Experience:
Key Considerations:
Ultimately, the decision depends on your priorities: career outcomes vs. college experience vs. financial considerations. Both schools can lead to success in IB with the right effort and networking.
Sources: Ohio State Fisher, Indiana Kelley, Villanova, or Emory for business undergrad?, Kelley School of Business at Indiana University or University of Florida?, Ohio State Fischer School of Business for IB, Worth transferring? (OSU to UMich), Ohio State MSF vs Villanova MSF
Personally, I would go IU. The “workshop” process isn’t as competitive as you think. While it is hard, as long as you get into the right clubs and building those connections along with study for the IB placement test hard over the summer, you’d be fine and IBW hard feeds
I would go IU. While getting into the IBW would be helpful, people forget that IU non-IBW also places well (MS, HL RX, and a ton of mm)
