The best undergrad business rankings are at Poets and Quants. From your list:
IU 13
UNC 14
UR 25
OS 46
(Sorry, didn’t look up Drexel).
You are not a direct admit at IU, which has the easiest direct admit business school of any. They take whatever is your SAT/ACT (1380/30 needed) and your weighted GPA, which only needs to be a 3.8. Your weighted GPA is quite low. What this means for your chances at IU, I’m not sure, given that I do hear academics there are easy, though in business it may be harder. Assuming you make it in, classes are huge in the beginning. Anyone who wants to go to Wall Street is gunning for the Investment Banking Workshop, which takes a small number of top kids. If you go to IU, do great, are at the top of your class, get into the IB workshop (or network intensely) you could get to Wall Street for IB. If that doesn’t happen, IU still has great OCR and placement, probably more in the Midwest. You’ll get great sports, but not small interactive classes. But, I thought their b-program sounded awesome!
UNC - haven’t researched this because it wasn’t on my S’s list, but the placement for IB on Wall Street will again go to the very top performers. Academics will be harder than at IU, I’m guessing similar to UR. Admission to B school is holistic, taking into account leadership, ECs, etc. I’m sure it’s a great program.
UR - Beautiful campus and b-school, not in the city but school provides shuttles, on Amtrak line for easy DC access. Small interactive classes, and professor mentor ship. Academics will be harder than IU, but if you can focus and put in the work, you should get the 2.7 (my S put social life before academics and ended up with a 2.7 1st semester, which shows 2 things. One, UR academics are not easy (he’s quite bright and thought he could get As with minimal work, which isn’t the case) and two, you can still get into the B-school with what we consider to be disastrous grades. He will be doing much better this term or won’t be returning!). UR is not known for IB placement on Wall Street. Due to that, a group of students started a fund, Gateway Capital Management, with the goal of Wall Street IB placement. They are all getting those jobs. They also have s student managed investment fund for top performers that is a class. So, again, be at the very top, get in the fund (or do your networking) have great ECs and internships, and you’ll get a placement you want. UR has good OCR, lots of connections in DC, and growing placement on west coast and Wall Street. They also have a great alumni network. A plus is that they will pay up to 4K for an unpaid internship, or research with a professor in your area of interest.
Don’t know about Ohio State.
Bottom line, no matter where you go, you need to work incredibly hard and be at the top of the class, with the right ECs and internships, to get the type of work you are seeking. Even at a feeder schools, you will not get Wall Street IB jobs without the top grades, ECs, and internships.
I’d suggest posting your query on Wall Street Oasis. My guess is they’d say this order: UNC, IU, UR, OS (not sure where Drexel fits in). But only you know 1) your true academic capabilities (need to be honest with yourself) and 2) whether you’d thrive in a big vs small environment.
