U Georgia vs Kelley

I’ve been admitted to the University of Georgia’s business school and Kelley at IU. I want to do investment banking when I graduate in NYC. Which college should I choose and why?

There r less selective clubs as you go through the first few semesters that are kind of a pipeline into corsair so if you stay along that path it isn’t too difficult

 

Both do decent as far as placements, though Kelley I think is slightly stronger from the standpoint of placing the most people. That being said, there is an argument to be made that Kelley is a more competitive environment compared to UGA given the IB Workshop and the general availability of knowledge of it. Personally I've met plenty of people from both schools.

Nothing is a guaranteed placement and a lot of factors can go into recruiting and placement - my view is that given the similarity of school rankings, I'd look a bit more into which one you think you'd have a better experience at re: student life, sports, the town, or anything else you might care about.

 

Misguided if u go uga. IU has great placement in NYC. Lots of Kelley MDs. Uga places if you’re in Corsair, but usually only to ATL and CHI (Charlotte too)
