How do BBs and boutique IBs view this school

<p>How is The George Washington University viewed by BBs ??</p>

<p>I want to go into either IB or S&T, haven't decided yet.. I plan on majoring in Finance and (maybe) minoring in math..</p>

<p>I know GW isn't considered a target, but their website shows pretty impressive firms.. Their graduate business school is ranked a lot higher than their undergrad</p>

<p>Thanks..</p>

<p>Their site may show impressive firms but they probably recruit for PWM or other non-IB related services. My school did the same but I will be transferring to a semi-target this year.</p>

<p>ChicagoBears, is your school UChicago? From what I’ve seen they actually have pretty decent recruiting, albeit a bit weaker than other top 10ish schools.</p>

<p>Nope my current school is DePaul and I’m transferring to either Vandy or Northwestern (waiting on a decision from NU).</p>

<p>It’s not a target.
You’ll need to major in networking.</p>

<p>It’s a good school and probably gets a lot of attention from banks, but it is not a target and therefore the attention it gets is not for S&T or IB. You’ll need a lot of networking, high GPA, some relevant internships and relevant coursework to give you a good chance - that said, it is definitely possible as I know a few who have done it.</p>

<p>PM me if you have other questions.</p>
