UCLA versus UNC, Investment Banking

Which school would be the better choice, still deciding between the two. I don't have assured admit into KF at UNC and it's incredibly hard to get in, UCLA on the other hand I would get the major I want. Which school would be a better choice, job opportunites, access, etc. 

 

Where do you want to be?

I’d wager UCLA is probably better for California, UNC is probably better for anything in Charlotte or Atlanta.

If your goal is NYC, then I’d advise you to go where you think you’ll be happier. Odds of breaking in probably aren’t that different — you should be fine if you do the right things; of course, you should try to get into KF, but it’s not the end of the world if you don’t.
