If you calibrate the cost of living for these Wall Street jobs, the pay is equal to an average entry level Salary in Columbus, OH. Add your student loans to that, and you’re looking at a life of complete misery. That’s why these firms recruit so much. They have huge turnover problems, and a fresh set of naive Dartmouth graduates they can hire from. It’s NOT worth going into extra debt for these jobs. If you’re planning to major in CS, then stick with GA Tech and stay FAR away from New York. There’s plenty of good lucrative tech jobs in the finance industry where financial knowledge would be a real asset.
