NYC is the financial capital of the US, so it’s definitely on your list. Boston also has a thriving, if smaller, scene. Chicago is the main focus for commodity trading in the US, so I’m sure they’re hiring finance students.
No matter where you go to school, do an internship in your field so that you’re employable when you graduate. The internship doesn’t need to be in NYC if you plan to work in NYC after graduation, but it can only help if it is. But it could be with a well known Boston based firm, and you could work in NYC without a problem.

Chicago or New York. Less expensive (but still not cheap) in Chicago, though.

Sometimes I question the internet and what is posted? Honestly the internet used to be like a different place, although it seems to be changing for the better. What are your thoughts?

I don’t really see how how this is much different between the Daily News printing this or some type of blog. Material like this needs to be administered out more often. I wished that others in the USA would want to take a stance like this.
