Target (undergrad) schools outside of the US?
I got into Wharton for undergrad and I cannot afford to go. Even though it's one of the best schools out there, 320k is simply too much money. My question is, are there any target schools outside the US? I'm an international student so getting a job on Wall Street is already hard enough, but will going to a school outside the US make it almost impossible? Thank you for your time.
If I were to attend Penn, I would be participating in a well-known dual-degree program between Wharton and the college of arts and sciences
It is extremely difficult to go to directly to Wall St. without doing your undergrad in the US and not being a US Citizen. Wharton is an amazing school and arguably the best to start a career in finance. If it costs you 320k because of no financial aid, your parents must make over $300k a year. Any way they pay ~$40k a year and then you take out a loan for the rest? $160k in loans is a lot but Wharton is worth it IMO.
Edit: My bad, didn't know that internationals get no financial aid

I would call the financial aid office, your freshman year you will likely be out of luck, but it is possible you can get aid for your next 3 years.
You could probably swing a year of loans if calling your office works out. it is definitely worth the investment if you want to work in the US. It is worth a shot.
