Transfer from University of Virginia to Columbia--Worth it?

Hi, I am a second year student at UVA and I plan to work in finance after graduation. I’m thinking about transferring into Columbia because of opportunities to do internship in the city during school term and the ivy name that opens more doors. Would you recommend transferring? Does Columbia have a huge edge in finance recruiting? Do you think it is core curriculum is manageable to a junior transfer? Your opinion is greatly appreciated!!

quick question, because my D is looking at both UVA and Columbia as her tops. Would you say there is a big difference in the social atmosphere at these schools? Other than career opportunities, would you say you’ve had a good experience at UVA?

of course, UVA has a very nice campus. regarding to internship opportunities, I believe it all depends on individual not school. You may consult with your advisor at UVA . I believe they are willing to assist you. perhaps you will enjoy where you at and continue making dreams!
