Umich Ross vs Georgetown McDonough Undergrad

Have heard both sides of the spectrum arguing one is better than the other.

I would be an incoming freshman at either one and would appreciate if anyone with experience with these schools would like to chip in on the better pick, somewhat targeted for IB/PE recruiting, but also culture and overall experience.

Gtown all day. Pre professional environment is off the charts. Look at the numbers, how many people Georgetown sends to IB, CM, PE, Consulting each year. Then think of it as a percentage of undergraduate enrollment compared to other schools

 

You're wrong because you're thinking about the entire population of UMich vs entire population of Gtown, which is far different. UMich Ross + students not in ross but involved in biz frats/clubs all get amazing placement. This year itself, (Class of 2026) Umich placed 9 kids at Evercore (8 M&A + 1 Rx) a few kids got PCA interviews as well. All the EBs love them as well as the typical large amount of kids who go to the bulges. If you count Ross population, their placement is better than Gtown.
