Not to hi jack the discussion.... Is this potentially the situation with Foster that places most alums into Tech at Amazon and Microsoft but into less interesting roles than perhaps other programs or because many of the students were at MS and Amazon?
Is it possible that Booth and Tuck place into IB more desirable positions? Is Charlotte really on par with New York placement? Could the roles be quite different?

Now that’s a really good point, I am assuming that by “more desirable”/“less interesting” you mean other functional roles in the financial services industry.
So, this is when you have to look at the functional placements.
NC definitely isn’t a NYC and Fuqua/Tuck aren’t a Wharton/Stern/Booth for IB
Tuck isn’t far from the IBs (brown brother Harrison’s, State street, etc...) of Boston but despite the geographical proximity, Tuck doesn’t seem to have a significantly higher “Investment Banking” functional placement percentage than Fuqua.
I did not go to either of the schools so this is an unbiased opinion. Feel free to DM me for additional analysis.
