If you are going for Big 4 then yes it matters, sort of. UBC/SFU makes no difference. Any other school (in BC) you will be severely disadvantaged unless you're a top of class, perfect GPA, lots of work experience type of person.

For ibanking, it matters even more. I would personally not even bother with pursuing finance at a school like SFU or below unless you're okay with working at small/lower tier firms.
