<p>Which school would be better for landing internships and eventually a job in banking? Hopefully from banking --> private equity or hedging after a few years (this probably isn't a factor in the decision).
Money is irrelevant in this decision.</p>
<p>Wash U - 98% Job placement, "better" overall school, existent campus
NYU - location, school-year internships, more focused on finance
UVA is sorta an option but I'm not really considering it at this point</p>
<p>I intend to be among the top of my class at either university. I've heard a lot of people say that NYU gets you better connections, but I know several kids from olin who got jobs at BB firms in NY after graduation, so going to Wash U still does leave you with opportunities..
I realize the responses will be opinions, but I'm open to all advice.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
