Questions about University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Job Placement

College Majors Business Major
1

<p>I know that the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has a top undergraduate business program and Big 4 accounting firms frequently recruit accounting majors from UIUC. </p>

<p>Aside from accounting, how are finance majors in terms of job placement? Do they often get recruited by prestigious Wall Street firms? How are UIUC finance majors compared to economics/finance majors from top schools such as Ivies, NYU Stern, UChicago, Northwestern, MIT, etc, when it comes to getting a job?</p>

<p>Sorry for a lot of questions, but any help will be appreciated. Thanks!!</p>

<p>about 75% percent of business undergrads get a job from uiuc when they graduate, northwestern has no finance major, my guess is some ppl from uiuc go to wall street but not much, better chance at wall st. firms is a top 10 b-school, Indiana included b/c of its investment banking program there</p>
