Don't put the list behind a paywall. Make it publicly available for parents to evaluate.
Excellent interview and report.
Salary has o be adjusted per metropolitan area
Public colleges always get the short end of the stick in these rankings, although the WSJ's clientele doesn't care. Most of them wouldn't dare send their children to a state university.
Georgetown is such a powerhouse for business / Wall Street. They could be ranked even higher
Columbia is more of a powerhouse on Wall Street even NYU’s Stern school of business MBA grads have a bigger presence on Wall Street than Georgetown grads
They are strong - but they are not as strong as Georgetown for high finance. Top 3 are: UPenn, Harvard, then Georgetown.
This has been studied in depth. Check out “Peak Frameworks - Investment Banking Target School Lost Using Data (2023).”
- It says, “The three overall best schools for investment banking placement are: University of Pennsylvania, Georgetown University, and Harvard University”
You should also remember that, despite Georgetown being very strong in top finance roles, they are more well-known for their international relations and law/med school placement. Meanwhile, NYU is hyper focused on finance, and although they do quite well in finance, they still aren’t the overall best.
Columbia is overall a better university than Georgetown, but isn’t as strong as Georgetown in finance or politics/IR.
Nevertheless, they are all excellent universities!
A university doesn’t have to be a private school to be prestigious.There are many prestigious public universities across the u.s eg UCLA, university of Illinois Urbana-Champaign,College of William and Mary. University of Virginia, university of North Carolina at Chapel hill, Binghamton university, Stony Brook university, UC Davis
The University of Illinois has one of the best engineering schools in the country. It is also ranked second in the accounting curriculum.
