Undergrad Schools Boston

Settle an argument between my friend and I, how would you rank the following schools in terms of opportunities to secure an IB or other finance offer:

BC BU Tufts Northeastern Brandeis

This is the order I would have it in. Thoughts?

If you’re looking to do IB, Bentley University sends way more kids to the big banks than Brandeis and has alum almost everywhere. I’d argue a couple other Boston-area schools ahead of Brandeis too (besides obvious ones)

 

Guy above is pretty spot on

BC > Tufts > NEU > BU > Brandeis

Babson, Bentley, and UMass Amherst probably same as BU
