Direct admit > secondary admit. At McIntyre, admission is not completely in the students control because admissions is holistic…meaning McIntyre has institutional priorities that they follow when selecting a class.

With that said, for IB, recruiting is often completed in the spring of sophomore year (when many interviews for post-junior year summer internships happen), before a student enters McIntyre. Note that it is quite possible to get IB jobs without a business type major…economics, math, neuroscience majors and more are represented in all incoming IB classes. Same is true for consulting.
