Career Resources
Penn
You a Spartan right now? Go to Penn, but you'll be depressed at the drastic change in quality of females and quality of fun from EL to PHL.
Michigan has the strongest engineering program of the three. If you want to work as an industrial engineer for a manufacturing firm, Michigan has the better network and higher quality graduates by an embarassing margin.
If you're 50/50 about whether you want to work on Wall Street or in finance, go with Penn.
Best chances for the street are at Penn. Kiss those Michigan girls goodbye, and invest in a nice cable package to safely go through NCAA football withdrawal
Let's not pretend Michigan girls are cute, but definitely with you on the football issue.
Northwestern places well for consulting. UMich is a target and since its instate will save you money. Not too sure on Penn, but I assume recruiting is strong as well.
That said, it can be done staying at your nontarget. It all depends on your grades/test scores (which I assume are good because you got in to those schools) and more importantly on the amount you network. Coming from a nontarget engineering background I was able to get BB and MM interviews as well as MBB consulting. It's up to you to close on the opportunities that open up for you.
For prop trading...Northwestern for sure. Better connections in the Chicago area than Penn.
Northwestern. If you're at Penn/Mich all the recruiting will go to the B-school kids and it will be incredibly hard to break in (not impossible though). OCR for those jobs will be through their B-schools OCR only, you'll have to fight to get access to postings. You shouldn't run into that problem at Northwestern, plus a lot of solid quant trading shops in chicago
UMich engineering has great recruiting, even in consulting and trading.
I have a feeling that UMich isn't gonna get much love here cause it's the only.... PUBLIC SCHOOL!!!!!!!
Systems Engineering >>>>> IE
IE gets basically zero respect.
Michigan. Assumed instate tuition, great presence on WS, better engineering program, better sports, better college town, better women, better parties, better EVERYTHING.
Michigan vs Penn
Having applied for transfer to Wharton, Stern and Harvard College, I know that transfer decisions don't come out for another two weeks.
Nice trolling though, OP.
As for your question, either Penn or NU. Penn is the stronger brand in case you decide to switch to other fields.
Not in Penn yet
^^ Yeah, you are right to presume you got into Penn.
^ Northwestern will NOT be releasing transfer decisions for at least another 10 days as well.
OP seems overly confident, I would say.
Lately WSO has become a good host for trolls.
I believe I got mine.
They don't start coming out until May 5-7.
