Northwestern vs Cornell
I'm a freshman at UCLA majoring in Econ with a 4.0 GPA. I applied to transfer to a few schools and was accepted to Northwestern and Cornell (CAS).
After undergrad I want to work in investment banking, preferably HK, NYC or London (I'm English and live in Hong Kong). I'm having a hard time deciding where to go - I know recruiting at both schools is strong but would either give me a distinct advantage/disadvantage, especially for the above locations?
I've heard of weird/harsh grading at Cornell but maybe this doesn't apply to Econ. Any advice is much appreciated.
Are the cultures similar?
Northwestern; great school and great culture/people/faculty.
Cornell, you'll be in New York even if you're not in the city. Besides Ivy League does matter to recruiters, basically every Ivy League has connections to wall street.
cornell is a bit more of a target but not sure how much of that goes to dyson vs cas
