Non target that missed recruiting for IB-will a one year masters in finance help be attainable
I am someone from a non target school but still decent school academically. I have a 3.5 gpa and I’m starting my junior year in the fall. For extracurriculars I’m doing some bs government internship and was vp of my frat and a small finance club at my school. I still want to do IB out of college but realize it’s also slightly untrainable. What can someone with my profile do to try and get into investment banking at the earliest point in my career. I’m currently gonna try to recruit for management consulting/other roles,
And I am looking into MSF. Any advice?
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some actionable steps you can take to improve your chances of breaking into investment banking (IB) from a non-target school:
1. Networking
2. Internships
3. Extracurricular Activities
4. Academic Performance
5. Master’s in Finance (MSF)
6. Alternative Roles
7. Preparation for Interviews
By following these steps, you can significantly improve your chances of breaking into investment banking, even from a non-target school. Good luck!

Similar situation but transferring to USC or some other target-ish school. Hope this post gets more attention and hope we’re not toooo late for this stuff. I don’t even necessarily want IB, I feel like I’m more interested in corporate banking lol
