<p>I saw the Undergraduate Finance Rankings at <a href="http://www.collegepoop.com/127/undergraduate-finance-rankings%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.collegepoop.com/127/undergraduate-finance-rankings&lt;/a>
and just out of my curiosity, which one(s) or what college (if it doesn't appears on the list) is the best for investment banking/portfolio management?</p>

<p>Hands down Wharton is tops for investment banking.</p>

<p>Why? Ivy League education & alumni Wall Street connections.</p>

<p>That list is not really useful for I-Banking… It’s missing a bunch of targets with no Finance major. I don’t think majoring in Finance is necessarily the best idea. The BB will train you in it anyway, so there isn’t a huge advantage to majoring in it.</p>
