I was wondering which undergrad colleges for a career in finance/IB are underrated?(excluding schools already established on Wall Street like UMich, NYU, Northwestern, etc) Which colleges do you think may reach top/higher rankings in the next 10 or so years? For example, USC used to be mainly known as a party school but has grown into a great, well-known college for business.

| +33 | Umich Ross vs Rice vs Notre Dame Mendoza | 17 | 3d | |

Colorado. Primetime gonna get kids at CVP fosho
Carnegie Mellon - most do engineering but seeing more and more of its business kids in wall street
Davidson- see more kids from this school albeit being liberal arts
Baruch - never thought of them as good school but saw quite a few from here
Placements from selective STEM oriented schools (schools like CMU/WashU/Emory and to a lesser extent schools like Georgia Tech/BU) have been improving significantly and will likely continue to do so as more and more alumni enter the industry.
CMU, WashU have horrible placement. Don't make the Top 30 on peak. No need to speak on GT and BU.
Emory
Villanova massive
Emory and Northwestern
Cornell for sure, we now have OCR for 2 bulges and 3 top MMs. Hard to beat that
