<p>I am a high school senior planning on trying to move into management consulting, brand management, public relations after I graduate college and then will try to gain entrance to a top 10 MBA, most likely for either Finance, Public Relations, or Marketing. I am not choosing to attend a college though on the basis of if I can get a job in IBanking after I graduate like many CC'ers do. Employment after college is definitley a top priority in my decision, but as you can tell by my list, whether or not the school is an IBanking recruited school is not high on my list of priorities. I care more about the overall prospects of landing a job respectable enough to aid in my entrance into a top 10 MBA. </p>

<p>Tufts
Wesleyan
Bowdoin
Bates
Colgate
Lehigh
College of the Holy Cross
Providence (EA)
Fordham (EA) </p>

<p>My stats are decent-600M 750CR 740W (definitley more of a communicator); 3.7 UW; Many EC's with Leadership, started my own business, and 2 Varsity Sports with which I am captain in;</p>

<p>What I would like to hear are suggestions for schools that I can add or even delete and hear some comments on the likelihood of easily landing a somewhat decent job after college if I major in Econ and maintain a respectable GPA.</p>

<p>Boston U is an excellent alternative to Fordham...and they have a pretty strong communications/PR/marketing program.</p>

<p>Wesleyan/Colgate/Bowdoin: you're set for a great job which leads to top10 MBAs.</p>

<p>I know where your coming from but BU has the worst campus ever in my opinion where at least Fordham has some community.</p>

<p>bananaphone you'll definitely make Fordham EA. It's really a great school on the rise, and is definitely a match/safety ... great school to fall back on for you.</p>

<p>bump, anyone else?</p>

<p>Colgate=Top MBAs? That means a degree from Boston College could take you to top MBAs...</p>
