UG business-economics school

Hello guys! I am new here... I found this site very interesting and helpful!! Now I have some questions and I hope I can get some advice from you. I have been accepted by three business school for UG: Mcgill Bcommerce, Montreal, 4years Bocconi, Bachelor in International Finance, Milan 3years HKUST, BSc Quantitative Finance, 3years How are these three Bschools regarded in the financial and consulting sector, especially in Wall street? Which program do you think would help me get a better placement right after I graduate? Thanks in advance

I don't think any of them place well in Wall Street... Mcgill is a target in Canada. HKUST is a target in HK. I dont know about Bocconi.

If you want to work in Wall Street i think you would have the best chance at Mcgill because it is relatively close to NY and there are some alumni working in Wall Street

So do you know someone in Wall Street who is from Mcgill?
 

I dont know about the best education my mcgill friends would disagree with that statement but Mcgill would give you the best reputation out of those.

 

If you're willing to work a bit in Europe, there are advantages for Bocconi,

I have a friend at Bocconi right now. He posted an article showing that for IB in UK, Bocconi had one of the best repuration in Europe....a higher placement than Oxford for example, It was second best in Europe if I remember right... The IB placement for Bocconi for Finance Msc was about 60% getting an IB job after graduation.

My friend has a third round interview for equity research with Morgan in about a week... its for the internship part of the program.

Hope it helps
