Brown Vs Northwestern for IB (ED)
I'm a HS senior debating whether to apply ED to either Brown or Northwestern. I have legacy at both schools, go to a 'feeder' school, and have really strong stats/extracurriculars so I'm quite confident that I'll get into either through ED (don't mean to sound arrogant). Before I discovered this forum I intended on EDing to Northwestern, but I saw a few posts that said Brown was strong for finance and Northwestern students didn't really go for IB, so I'm not sure what to make of that.
I feel like I would prefer Northwestern because of a combination of location/campus, social life/student body culture, and well roundedness in case I end up not wanting to do finance, but I think Brown has great perception because it's an ivy and since it's strong in finance. Should I ED to Northwestern over Brown for the reasons I mentioned above, and can I break into IB from Northwestern, or will it be easier to do from Brown?

Look at this placement and make your own judgement. Imo Northwestern > Brown for finance at this point.
Thank you!
Full disclosure, i go to northwestern, but im happy to provide some insight. I think you should go with northwestern because of the reasons you mentioned, along with the fact that our placement has gotten incredibly strong without too many kids interested in finance as you mentioned.
This year, we had 8 blackstone, 7 evercore, 7 morgan stanley, 5 goldman, 3 kkr, 3 bain capital, 2 ares, 2 vista, 2 cvp, 3 jpm, 2 pjt, and sent to every other top BB/EB and other buyside places. Just join the clubs, network, do cfs, and you'll place well at northwestern. Hope this helps.
Looks great, I didn't know that so many people went to buy-side firms like that out of college! Is the placement similar @ Brown?
Nah Brown places way worse. Based on the placements Northwestern is very very skewed towards the buyside compared to other targets but idk why since I didnt go there. I'd network with current students at Northwestern if I was you.
