Arizona State University

Arizona State University is one of the largest public universities in the United States. ASU is a cornerstone of Arizona and is highly regarded for its athletics and student life.

ASU ranks #59 on our investment banking target school list, earning itself a designation as a lower semi-target school. The data shows that the very top students at ASU have been able to break into investment banking, although it is not a common placement.

ASU is home to the W.P. Carey School of Business, which provides both undergraduate and graduate programs.


ASU Campus

ASU has a very low Presence score of 12%, which is tied for the lowest score on our ranking (with Villanova and Colgate).


We note that ASU sends a disproportionate number of hires to Goldman Sachs (33%) and J.P. Morgan (21%), which are widely considered 2 of the top 3 investment banks. This suggests that the most successful ASU graduates can still earn outsized outcomes.

ASU Placement Data

Our investment banking target school list is a complete rank of 60 schools and analyzed >60k LinkedIn profiles of professionals who worked in investment banking between 2008 and 2023. We filtered the data to examine U.S. hires into the top investment banks.
