<p>I want to work in Acturial Science, and I have heard these are among the best. Which school wil provide the best internships and job placement for a bank or consulting firm ( NOT INSURANCE) in NYC since I do want to work there badly.</p>
<p>Thanks for all responces in advance</p>
<p>Don’t know much about the major, but I would recommend either Penn State or UGA. I’m from Georgia and Georgia State is not considered a good school at all.</p>
<p>thanks for the answer
anybody else have an opinion?</p>
<p>

<p>I would have to agree with this statement in general, but keep in mind that I don’t know anything about their actuarial program</p>
<p>Georgia State has a very good actuarial science program.</p>
<p>Why do you want to study actuarial science if you don’t want to work in insurance? Other opportunities do exist, but it seems silly to me.</p>
<p>My son got admitted to U of Illinois Urbana, Illinois State U., Purdue, U Connecticut, and Temple U. for Actuarial Science. He is going to Temple’s Business Honors for Actuarial Science this Fall. We studied very hard on those AS programs and visited some schools. The final choices were UConn and Temple. We concluded that Temple has the best professional development and job placement support for its Actuarial students. Check out their Actuarial Science Student Club website and you will know. The Society of Actuaries website also provides the actuarial exam statistics of the schools with this major. Temple is one of the Actuarial Centers of Excellence. Temple has a very robust professional development support in its business school, including weekly seminars by those recruiting companies in the actuarial field. The Fox business school staff was very professional and good in marketing its programs to their targeted students. It also helped our choice for Temple because it offers my son full tuitions for 4 years. My wife and sister were actuarial science graduates from U of Illinois at Urbana back in early 80’s so we know something about that profession. Go visit that school and talk with the AS program director.</p>
<p>thank you guys very much the reason that I want no insurance is because I want to open my horizan and maybe if i work at a bank then I could switch over to an i banking job or anything. I see you poin tbut that is just my reasoning and i will look at temple thanks again.</p>
