Co-op program at Concordia vs Mcgill for bachelor degree?
Hello, I am graduating this year and heading off to university the following year hopefully. I just want to know which is better if I plan to pursue a career in investment banking at wall/bay street : the coop program at John Molson school of business or Mcgill? I want facts... Not biased opinions. Thank you in advance.
I go to McGill and can say with 100% certainty that if you want to work in Toronto or anywhere in the US McGill is much better--better on campus recruiting opportunities, better reputation etc. McGill is a very tough school though!
Unless you plan on staying in Montreal (though even then you will be at a disadvantage), go to McGill. I don't have any facts on what % of each class goes into banking and how much their starting salaries are, but I can tell you two things:
1) Most people I know who went to John Molson did so because they couldn't get into McGill 2) I've met a grand total of ONE Concordia grad in banking/PE/HF
But wouldn't the coop program give me a better work experience than mcgill? Also, is the school choice even relevant if it is only the bachelor's degree?
Doesn't matter because chances are you won't get a decent coop job with John Molson. Moreover, there's no upside to going to JMSB for the co-op program - if you go and don't get a good co-op job, then you're screwed. If you do get a good co-op job, you're not really in a better position than if you went to McGill and had good grades.
Yes, if you want a job after you graduate. No, if you plan on going straight to grad school.
