Anyone familiar with this Bank of America "Analyst" position?

My school career coach sent me an email saying Bank of America is hiring through my school's program and he advised this may be a good fit for me. Is this a financial analyst position? I'm not finding much information about it.

This position would require me to move out of state which is a cost as I'm living at home right now. Any idea what the starting salary and career progression would be like? I'm going to be drowning in student loans so money is an important factor to me. Also don't want to be stuck in a dead end position either.
