Questions about several UG B-School

I have several questions about WUSTL(Washington University in S.T. Louis) and Emory UG B-school Goizueta.
Are they Target School?
Do they have a lot of alumni works on the street?
Thank you!

 

I wouldn't call them target schools, but they do have some people on the street. I think Emory might have the most out of those three, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

"Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, for knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA."
 

A lot of kids at Emory in the b-school come from New York and have parents/family members who work in finance. Not surprisingly a lot of them end up back in the city working in finance. Emory has a pretty good undergraduate recruitment program too.

Sometimes when you bring the thunder... you get lost in the storm.

WUSTL is considered a Semi-Target. It suffers because of location. I also don't think that many people coming from WUSTL actively pursue banking or trading. They are definitely more of a target for MM banks in Chicago and Houston though...

What is MM banks? May I ask?

What is MM banks? May I ask?

Middle Market banks--so banks that are not the 9 Bulge Bracket banks--JPM. GS, MS, Barcap, CS, UBS, DB, Citi, BAML. In trading terms, they are smaller shops. In banking terms, they focus on smaller clients and deals.

You should do a search on this site before asking about what schools are targets.

but Yes, Yes, semi-target, semi-target, yes--mostly for Chicago, but some NY placements.
