Where this leads

Real career pipelines from this school, based on alumni outcomes and recruiting patterns.

Finance/banking internships via NYC/Boston proximity, but second-tier compared to Ivy peers
Tech recruiting to SF/Seattle is solid; campus isn't target-tier for top firms
Nonprofit/NGO pipeline strong; many grads stay in Northeast doing education/social work
Accounting Big Four recruiting solid; regional offices hire steady flow of grads
Management consulting mid-market firms (Deloitte Consulting, not MBB); geography limits top recruiting
