Boston (University and location in general)

Career Opportunities & Internships Investment Banking
1

<p>Hi</p>

<p>I was recently accepted to Boston University's School of Management. I know full well that this isn't a target school, and that my odds are slim of securing a job (or even internships) at the most highly sought after banks.</p>

<p>I am a top student, however, and I do fully intend to graduate with an extremely high GPA regardless of what college I attend. My question is simply: does anybody know what opportunities are available to BU SMG students wanting to enter IB?</p>

<p>Also, how good is Boston (the city) for a financial career? I mean, I know it's not NY but I've heard it has a huge presence from all the big banks and is rapidly becoming a financial hub.</p>

<p>My greatest thanks to anybody with information.</p>

<p>Boston is a great city for asset management companies. Much less so for traditional investment banking.</p>
