USC vs Washu vs Fordham for IB
Good afternoon. A few weeks ago, I managed to get into USC, and that put a wrench in my plans because I was trying to decide between Washington University and Fordham University for IB. But now USC is also something I need to take into account. I would like to get a job on the East Coast, and I am having a real hard time deciding. I simply want to make an informed decision regarding this choice and would appreciate any advice.
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's a breakdown to help you make an informed decision regarding your choice between USC, Washington University (WashU), and Fordham University for a career in Investment Banking (IB), especially with an East Coast focus:
USC (University of Southern California):
Washington University in St. Louis (WashU):
Fordham University:
Conclusion: If your primary goal is to work in Investment Banking on the East Coast, Fordham offers a significant geographical advantage for networking and recruitment. However, if you value a broader alumni network and potentially stronger overall brand recognition in the business world, USC and WashU are also excellent choices but may require more proactive efforts in networking to secure East Coast opportunities.
Ultimately, your decision might also weigh on other factors such as the overall fit, campus culture, and specific academic opportunities at each institution. Engaging with current students and alumni from these schools could provide further insights to help in your decision-making process.

Forget about Fordham. USC is good for west coast and Washu is great for Chicago, pretty much everyone who wants ib, gets ib coming out of Washu due to small class sizes, easy gpa and especially WUIB. I would say Washu.
