Goizueta Business School - seeking advice

Hi guys

I am a first year student at an UK university, and my primary goal is to work in S&T (FX options if it makes any difference) in the US. I guess, probably the most viable option for this would be to land a gig here in the UK, and then after a few years relocate to the US.

However, I would have the opportunity to spend the second year of my degree at Emory, more specifically at Goizueta (BBA programme). I am really considering this option, as this may enable me to land a summer internship at a BB in let's say NYC that year, and therefore, I could have the chance to start my career right away in the US (given that I would get a FT offer) later on.

Now my question would be that am I missing something here? Would it still be problematic, even after I landed a summer internship in the US, because of Visa issues? Also, most importantly, how is Goizueta regarded at BBs? Pretty much it seems a big time non-target from my research, would I stand a reasonable chance?

Thank you very much!
