Respectfully, don't waste your money/time going to either if you are trying to get into IB. Very few from either school even from undergrad go to a name-brand bank.  

 

From ANY investment bank? Sure, you can probably get into some regional boutiques or LMM firms. But it won't really open doors into the types of investment banks that are "worth it" from the standpoint of salary, experience, exit opps, etc (namely EB/BB/top MMs). 

The best case is that you'll be able to break into a smaller boutique shop, and then eventually lateral to a more reputable firm. That process is much less straightforward than new grad hiring and often relies on alumni networks, and neither of those places has a substantial presence of alums in high finance. 

 

Architecto non labore tenetur debitis consequatur est. A placeat eum non asperiores ratione.

Magni eum enim explicabo eius necessitatibus sunt. Vitae ut minima sunt molestiae non perferendis. Neque deserunt aperiam eaque libero rerum sapiente.
