If you want to settle in SoCal, Anderson is great. Whether it’s MBB, VC, IB, CPG, or media and entertainment, you can’t go wrong with Anderson. Have been very impressed with the community and alumni network out there.

Stanford > Haas > Anderson/Marshall > the rest

Yea if you want to stay in SoCal I’d do UCLA or USC. Of course if you can get into Stanford, go there. Haas is where it gets iffy.

LA is super insular and industries like entertainment have stronger networks at UCLA and USC.

Haas is kind of perceived as in the same category as UCLA and it’s viewed as Uber liberal and kind of hippy. SoCal is more conservative, especially OC and San Diego. Land of Reagan until fairly recently
