If you want to apply ED to Vanderbilt, do it! Michigan is a great option, but let’s be honest here. Vanderbilt undergrad for a career on Wall Street is at least as credible. Like Stanford, Northwestern, U. Chicago, Harvard, most other Ivies, Duke, etc… Vanderbilt could easily offer an undergrad business degree, but doesn’t. All these universities believe a broader undergraduate curriculum will serve a student better in finance over the long run. I suggest you major in Economics, and if you desire, minor in Business at Vanderbilt. One of my daughters majored in Economics, and minored in both Business and Psychology while playing on Vanderbilt’s Women’s Basketball team (playing Div I in the SEC Conference is basically equal to a full time job) which is probably pushing the boundaries, but shows what you can do at Vanderbilt. You will get a job on Wall Street in New York or even at highly respected industry stalwart Alliance Bernstein’s new HQ in Nashville. If you work a few years and desire to go back to school, go to one of the universities listed above for your MBA, which is a fantastic experience, since your classmates (and you) will have several years of real and amazingly diverse work experiences. While Vanderbilt students are very driven in the career direction they’ve chosen, the atmosphere is also highly collaborative and friendly.
