Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's the US undergraduate university tier rankings for Investment Banking (IB) recruitment:

This list is based on the total hires in relation to the undergraduate population. However, it's important to note that this ranking does not take into account the student body population that is interested in going into IB. So, while a school might be ranked lower, it doesn't necessarily mean it's not a good choice for someone interested in IB. It's always a good idea to consider other factors such as the school's culture, location, and specific programs when making a decision.
