Is UNC enough of a target school?

From my understanding, UNC is considered a semi target by many on Wall St. That being said, can someone give it to me straight whether or not UNC is a good enough school for sales and trading or investment banking? For further information, I am not a Kenan-Flagler Business admit yet because I apply next semester but I have maintained a 3.6 GPA. Thank you WSO members.

Yes they are. Just to give one example, there are many UNC alums at Wells Fargo in IB/S&T. The school also places well for other banks in NYC. Obviously they don’t have placement like Ivy Leagues but they are still good.
