A little bit late on this but thought I’d share my thoughts.
Stronger IB placements than I expected initially coming here. Used to be very consulting focused, but now the student body seems more IB dominated.
Every major bank visits campus and alumni at practically every bank on Wall Street. A lot of the time this year or last year was the first time these banks have visited campus as well.
Top clubs are the business frats, Vanderbilt Investment Club, Financial Development Program, Commodore Capital Group, and Financial Modeling Club.
I'm thinking of applying to Vanderbilt ED2. Do you think its better than schools like Washu, Emory, Georgetown, Rice and UCLA for IB recruiting?
Depends on the city. However, assuming for NYC placements, better than all those schools besides Georgetown. It’ll also be way more fun than the other schools on that list.
Check out the peak frameworks study for IB target schools. Take it with a grain of salt because it’s getting somewhat dated by this point (especially for schools on the rise like Vanderbilt).
