Need a list of schools that have good finance programs and great recruits for trading. Schools like MIT and Wharton will be too hard for me to get into but probably rank 18+ and under 60 will be great. I love schools that have trading labs, etc but I just need a better list that hopefully specializes in trading more. Thanks

Texas A&M? Is that a fking joke?
Top props recruit from schools that are hard to get into and ones that are nearby. The usual list includes:
-Harvard -Princeton -MIT -UPenn -UChicago
and many/most of the other top 10-12 schools. Some will recruit a good amount of Stanford or Columbia as well. If you are looking at S&T programs, you can add any other top target to that list as well.
After the ones listed above and other general targets, props will also look at:
-NYU -U. Illinois -Wisconsin -sometimes Indiana / ND -Michigan -UIC (seriously)
Most of those state schools are there primarily because of location to Chicago. Other than NYU and maybe Ross/UIllinois (only really UI if you're doing more programming or quant stuff), they don't get much of a look from S&T programs.
What kind of trading? S&T, Energy, Prop, Quant? Varies depending on category
STW, I think the proper term you're looking for is "Institutional Services Flow Trading" rather than S&T if you're talking about trading in most products that involve a traditional sales guy on the phone to a buy side firm and a trader. S&T is pretty broad and typically covers everything else on the list you mentioned.
sweet, thank you everyone! I cant believe UIC is on the list though. If there are anymore it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
