<p>Can someone compare Cornell vs. Ross in the in the field of finance? Which one is better? Which one is recruited more by BB IBs?</p>
<p>While Ross is a well respected program, I would choose Cornell AEM.</p>
<p>Why is that?</p>
<p>Because he's Asian and would choose Cornell because it's an ivy.</p>
<p>^^hahaha if i were Asian i would say that is tru but im not</p>
<p>then what is up with your username?!</p>
<p>Um, any other feedback? Can someone compare the two in IB recruiting in top firms and those kinds of stats? Thanks again.</p>
<p>Both are good programs. Go with fit. Since I go to Michigan, I can tell you that lots of banks recruit at Ross.</p>
<p>Yes I know that very well, thanks Nick. The only reason I am asking this is, however, while I like Mich, I like the campus / atmosphere of Cornell better. It is also closer to home, which is nicer. Really, what my question comes down to is, is Cornell as good as Ross (since I know Ross is fantastic)?</p>
<p>In that case go to Cornell. I don't think recruitment at Ross would be that much better than at Cornell.</p>
<p>Does anyone one if Cornell has a stat sheet like Ross does about how many people went to IB, how many went to Consulting, etc.? That way we can compare a given year between the two.</p>
<p>I know that Cornell is ivy league and all that, but I personally think that Ross has a better undergrad business program.</p>
<p>And who here is saying that Ross is not popular for Asians? Ross/Michigan is as popular as Cornell for Asians. </p>
<p>On Topic:</p>
<p>Ross has definitely a better business program than Cornell and is more popular in top bulge bracket firms, but i would go to Cornell for personal reasons.</p>
<p>Are you in new york state? if so, then cornell would be cheaper for you and you should go there.</p>
<p>Why would Cornell be cheaper if he was in new york state?</p>
<p>When will people get that a university is only cheaper for in-state kids if its a public university??? Jeez.</p>
<p>I know. Geniuses....</p>
<p>But this guy is right. The following cornell colleges are contract and offer cheaper in state tuition:</p>
<p>Agriculture & Life Sciences
Human Ecology
Industrial and Labor Relations</p>
<p>The Applied Economics and Management program is in the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences.</p>
<p>this is the cost of Cornell for new york residents at the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences.</p>
<p>$32,710</p>
<p>This is the cost of Michigan out of state for freshman/sophmore year</p>
<p>$42,512</p>
<p>Michigan out of state for junior/seniore year</p>
<p>$44,710</p>
<p>So we do see about a 10-12 thousand dollar difference. I would have assumed that they would be just a little bit closer.</p>
<p>where's alexandre on this one</p>
<p>i used to attend michigan-ross, but transfered out. i don't know much about cornell's aem program, but i know two graduates from there that ended up with amazing ft job offers.</p>
<p>michigan overall is a very well-known school, but most people don't give it much credit. when they hear michigan, the first thing that comes to mind is football, not academics. the business program is very competitive due to the curve, so only the top students will get the banking internships and ft offers. a bulk of the students end up going into accounting at the big 4 or work for a fortune 500 upon graduation. also, the top consulting firms (mckinsey, bain, bcg) don't really recruit many students from ross.</p>
<p>in my opinion, i would go to cornell because it's not really a traditional business program (which was very unattractive to me), like wharton, stern, haas, etc. also, you can't go wrong with the cornell name.</p>
<p>anyway, both are great schools and programs. i just think that cornell will give you an edge when it comes to recruitment.</p>

<p>No, that is not true. It's just as well known for its academics.</p>
