<p>I'm trying to prioritize schools for myself, as I've heard back from a few. I want to go into finance, so here are my options (no specific order):</p>
<p>-University of Chicago (no business undergrad, I know)
-University of Virginia (McIntire beginning soph. year)
-Temple Business Honors (Fox)
-Penn State Business (Smeal)
-University of South Carolina Honors</p>
<p>I'm from Eastern PA...really liked UChicago (educationally, plus the city for some social life). Will I be able to get those same job opportunities with a UChicago Econ/other major degree as a UVA business degree? Someone help me rank these schools in terms of best choice for undergrad business/econ!</p>
<p>UChicago is definitely well recruited by BB banks, if that's what you're asking for. UVA is a great business school, but I think a UChicago econ degree should be able to open just as many doors in business, but also more in other fields (like graduate work,...etc).</p>
<p>If I were to rank them:
UChicago
UVA
Penn State
Temple
South Carolina (I know absolutely nothing about this school, so the bottom end of my list may be wrong).</p>
<p>You can go wrong with uchicago or uva. Penn State is pretty good to but just not on that level. Really with any of those you will have opportunities in finance when you graduate. I don't really know what you want to do specifically in finance, but chances are you will be able to do with a degree from uchicago or uva. I know nothing about temple or south carolina.</p>
