<p>My customers include many large Wall Street firms, and have had the occasion to bring this subject up on a few occasions. Everyone I’ve asked, at least (small sample size), have been more than aware, and very impressed by W&M’s reputation. </p>
<p>That said, I think “Wall Street” will still be more impressed by more familiar or well-known schools like Wharton, Cornell, NYU, Emory, Stanford, Virginia (McIntire), and Michigan. And W&M’s connections to DC/NoVA are stronger than to NYC. But I don’t think you’ll be doing yourself a disservice by attending W&M. If you’re in-state, you <em>have</em> to consider UVA - but UVA isn’t for everyone, it’s a much different environment - if it’s a better personal fit, I wouldn’t worry about W&M somehow limiting your career. </p>
