College Majors Business Major
1

<p>I want a college that will be good for my future career as a Hedge fund manager</p>

2

<p>fordham or NYU or Cornell. thats about it in NY</p>

3

<p>And of course Columbia.</p>

4

<p>oh wow i missed out on columbia big time. thanks for catching error.</p>

5

<p>cross out fordham for Hedge Funds</p>

<p>Well your not likely to be recruited undergrad from Fordham for HF, but its not likely at NYU either. A few people get into IBs from Fordham, so some Fordham alumni do end up in prominent positions.</p>

<p>Check list of Fordham alumni in business:

<p>you can cross out nearly every college, does that really make a difference. People need to look at other careers besides aspiring to be a hedge fund manager, it is so repititive</p>

8

<p>baruch and Hunter are also a good value.</p>

<p>In general I think all NYC schools suck, Im from there.</p>

9

<p>New York state or New York City?</p>

<p>isn't Cornell pretty good? i would think so since it is an ivy league</p>

<p>Columbia doesn't have an undergrad business school. NYU STERN dominates any school in your category by far. If you really want to work at an HF look at HYP, MIT, UPenn, Stanford, Uchicago, Carnegie Mellon, NYU Stern and Umich. These school's generally get recruited more for HF positions because of either very strong overall prestige, being a quantitative powerhouse or for strength of their undergrad business school. I think the two school's best for you are NYU Stern or Financial Engineering or Econ at Columbia.</p>

<p>never heard of an undergrad fin eng major?</p>

<p>Columbia has the largest number of students going into hedge funds out of undergrad and MBA program, higher than Harvard, MIT, etc.... PE...who knows</p>

13

<p>Columbia is way better than Stern. There aren't too many(any?) students who turned down Columbia for Stern.</p>

14

<p>Give my school some credit. There's no doubt that Columbia is generally better percieved than NYU Stern, but I don't think there is any business firm that Stern UG students can't break into that Columbia UG students do.</p>

15

<p>hupkorea but answer my original question - do any students turn down columbia for stern? </p>

<p>your comparison is a weak one. take this strange example. you could buy any gaming system (ps3,xbox360,wiii) for $1000. However, if some company offered you $10,000 to buy their system, would you simply answer "but I could buy any game system for $1,000! I think not.</p>

<p>I was under the impression that it's highly unlikely for one to get recruited by HFs and PE shops straight out of undergrad. You would need some experience before getting hired. Considering the odds, why would anyone count on getting hired right out of undergrad? It's really a crapshoot.</p>
