| I see. Would I have to go out and seek an internship, or do companies offer them at the school? And in which summers do u do them? After sophomore? After junior? Or both? | |

| Really after your sophomore year. People come to IU and recruit for internships. | |

| University of Richmond was number three in academic quality and it has literally no MBA program, so the quality of faculty is not reflected in the graduate program for someone who brought that up earlier. | |

| idk, maybe it's just me but when I see #17 miami of Ohio and right next to it #16 Carnegie Mellon the whole thing is ridiculous. M of O is a respectable good school but in no way is it on the par with CMU which had acceptance rate in the teens this year, avg SAT near 1400 (old) and top companies recruiting on campus....I can't imagine Goldman and Lehman recruiting too heavily at Miami of Ohio. You can't compare the 2 yet they're only one spot apart. Crazy... | |

| Just so people know life isn't about the Goldman Sachs internships because essentially nobody here is going to work there. Unless you go to penn or are top 5 in your business school class they aren't looking for you, trust me on this.
So there is nothing wrong with being recruited by big name companies that don't involve ibanking but pay high wages. Places like microsoft, boeing, coca cola, GE, Phillip Morris, and other places like that.
And it is not like a medium sized company like bear sterns won't pay you big bonuses if you earn them. It's not just Goldman and Morgan Stanley spitting out the big bonuses | |

| farbdogg, I have no problem working for GE or Phillip Morris. Bears & Stearns would be a dream. I've never really even thought I had a shot in hell at Goldman Sachs. | |
