There is a lot of truth to the UNO outcomes.. if you are sticking around town, you can make it work.. I managed to get into a Big 6 accounting firm straight out of UNO, but it was only a small handful of us, maybe 4-5 that year that got in. I would say another dozen or so were hired out of Creighton. So don't let someone tell you a small school won't open some doors, but it's really up to you to make things happen. After that first job, the UNO degree means nothing, while the Creighton degree will pay dividends for as long as you need it to. I would go out of state to the best place for my major as well. The networking circles you get to run around in are priceless.Wrong
A&M ranked first in Texas three years running according to the Journal and others . I’m trusting the Wall Street Journal before you.
My UNO buddies- many of them struggled to find good jobs back in the 80s- meanwhile I had multiple offers from several Fortune 1000s right out of school. Many of my UNO buddies were underemployed - they didn’t really have much of a leg up on anyone. Afterwards always had recruiters calling me etc. Well before the internet days. Felt very fortunate to have found A&M.
