<p>Hi i was accepted into both and deciding between the two. I want to get into the business school and major in finance either by sophomore year from Indiana or junior year from msu. I am scared that i wont get into indiana kelley so im leaning towards msu broad. My question is does msu get legit recruiters like a IBM, Merrill lynch ect. and does michigan state have a good finance program or is Indiana's so much better and or MSU doesnt have a good one. Help please and thank you</p>

<li>From a business recruitment standpoint Indiana is a better option.</li>
</ol>

<p>As of date, there are about 30 companies that visit MSU for finance:</p>

<p>While Indiana (Kelley) does not break out the list of companies by finance, they report that 301 companies visited their campus for recruiting in 2012-2013. </p>

<p>Assuming 20% of the recruiting companies are for finance, you have a higher probability of being recruited in the area of finance at Kelley.</p>

<ol>
<li>Compare your net price for the first two years at both MSU & Indiana. Find out from Kelley the profiles of students who have been admitted to their finance program in the past. If you can afford Indiana, and can work hard to keep up with, or better still, exceed, the profiles of admitted students, then it is recommended that you matriculate into their program. In the unfortunate event that you fail to be admitted to finance during your sophomore year at Kelley, you can try your option of transferring to MSU and being admitted to their business school (finance) during your junior year. </li>
</ol>

<p>This way you get multiple options to be admitted to a good finance program.</p>
