i'm pretty sure this differs between branches.
i.e. cornell is a target for nyc, but not for LA
How do you know? I go to one the U.S. schools listed above - I just checked some old career center postings and they didn't differentiate between offices. It just says "Moelis", not "Moelis NY" or "Moelis LA"
Yeah I go to one of the US schools above (hopefully my name doesn't give it away lol) and it says for Cali, Illinois, and New York Locations on our OCR for FT.
UCL??? What the fuck? They're distinctly average in the UK. No subject do they stand out for. Warwick is also borderline, unless this includes the business school for post grads.
Both those schools are heavily recruited from all bbs in london and lol at warwicks postgrad b school now that thing is useless.
absolute bollocks, am heavily involved in the uni application process, and was part of it a while ago. UCL is not considered a top 10, it's distinctly 3rd in London, at best, behind IC and LSE. To recruit from Warwick and UCL, but not Imperial or Bath or Durham is odd, at best.
ucl is 4th in the world. warwick considered to be "ivy league" equivalent in the uk
Yeah but where does Moët recruit from?
do you even work in ib? bath and durham are recruited for middle office at best. I mean fuck do a search for other threats on here. bbs are full of guys from warwick, i know a couple of ucl in the industry as well
I take it you mean Stockholm School of Economics
sigh, ok we'll play this out.
http://www.ucl.ac.uk/prospective-students/undergraduate-study/degrees-1…
entry requirements for economics and statistics. A* in maths and 2 other's at A (at best).
No STEP at all. The others I listed do require that.
edit: They do have higher requirements for their maths course, which is unusual given its rankings.There isn't a soul in the land that would put UCL above IC for maths or physics.
I expected people to care more about the harder subjects, and was surprised not to see IC on there.
this is lse fwiw, http://www2.lse.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/degreeProgrammes2012/economic…
same req for econ.
I can agree to disagree on ucl, but your warwick comments esp. on post grad are just completly ridicolous lol. I mean fuck for masters you have to completly fuck your undergrad to not make oxbridge, lse or god forbid in case you rly fucked up big time, lbs.
what role and at what tier of firm are you out of my curiosity?
What? LSE doesn't even do Economics and Statistics. It's BSc Statistics and Finance requirement is AAA. It's Mathematics with Economics, possibly the most mathematical degree they have, has A*AA, with no STEP.
Yes, IC has a better reputation for technical degrees. But reputation =/= quality,
IC Maths is obviously world class, with Physics department being extremely good in theoretical phys, plasma and CMP.
UCL Maths department is just as world class, both research and reputation wise. UCL Physics department is great in HEP, quantum info, CMP and nanotech.
Plenty of people choose UCL > Imperial for shitloads of reasons - Imperial is more expensive for international students, it's a dickfest, South Ken is very expensive, they might want a particular professor from UCL or an internship in the LCN. The same works the other way around.
And what the fuck, admission requirements can't t tell you shit about the quality of education. Oxford Physics had AAA until this year, does it mean that its worse than Durham ?
Please don't speak so confidently if you don't know what you are talking about.
thank you richard.
Moelis may not consider imperial a "target" but its certainly not a non-target
Of course, I vouch for it, it's amazing :)
just had a quick ask through most of my contacts on skype, all put UCL substantially below the other unis listed here (UK). Agree to disagree I guess.
These are Evercore's target schools:
Undergraduate Schools
Columbia University Harvard University Massachusetts Institute of Technology New York University University of Michigan University of Pennsylvania University of Texas University of Virginia University of Western Ontario
Most, if not everyone, who works there came from one of the above. Not many Yalies and Princetonians, hence Yale and Princeton are somewhat disregarded. Not because they're bad schools.

These are most likely similar for Lazard.
lolwut op? Moelis nyc has a ton of UMich people...
Is Indiana the strongest target school in the Midwest outside of Northwestern? Their presence in this industry is huge and it literally all happened in the past decade.
Indiana Kelley is not as strong as Michigan Ross, but they are strong.
Fuqua is a target for Moelis?
I know that at BAML, there was like 1 kid from UMich and none from UChicago while there were like 6-8 Kelley SAs this summer. The only schools that were as well represented were Cornell, Dartmouth, Duke, and Vanderbilt.
The 3 SA from Ivey would like to disagree with your list.
Sweet my school is on there
not that I even want to go into banking, but still it makes me feel warm and happy inside
Indiana has an "IB track" for selected students. Program places real well in banking. Sure helps when it preps you for interviews and gets the alumni involved.
UChicago is a great school. Not certain of students' interest level in banking but there probably is a fit issue on both sides (my personal opinion).
i go to a t15 undergrad school that's listed as a 'target school' for moelis, but moelis hasn't put up any postings for this year, so i'm guessing we might be dropped. so this list might be outdated.
According to the Moelis website (http://www.moelis.com/careers/university-programs/SitePages/events.aspx) their target schools in the US for their analyst programs are the following:
Duke Harvard Indiana NYU Northwestern UC Berkeley Michigan Penn UVA
Moelis target MBA programs (via their MBA recruiter) are: CBS Wharton Booth NYU Stern UCLA Anderson (for LA)
Moelis also recruits at UCLA
