Vanderbilt vs. Warwick for Finance
Hello everyone, I was recently accepted to Vanderbilt's undergraduate College of Arts and Science and am considering a double major in Economics and possibly Mathematics. Additionally, I have a conditional offer from Warwick in the UK for their Economics program. I want to go into investment banking, but I would also consider trying for quantitative analysis, or private equity, (rather than consulting- a field I've heard Vanderbilt is known for).
While Warwick is a known target school for finance in London, I'm more inclined towards the prospect of working in NYC. I also have a couple of strong connections within the U.S. finance sector, which I've heard can be influential when venturing into finance. However, I'm unsure about Vanderbilt's reputation in finance and the strength of its Economics program.
Cost is another major factor—Vanderbilt is nearly THREE times more expensive than Warwick, due in part to an extra year of study and also because I'd be a full-paying international. While my parents are willing and able to cover this, it's a substantial investment, and I need to decide if it's worthwhile. With a decision deadline in three days, I'm at a crossroads. I would rather work in the US but is Vanderbilt worth the extra cost?
