Hi all,

I am planning to study master of finance in Fall 2012. So far, I accepted by
Northeastern U
Brandeis
Uni of San Fran with $2500 per sem scholarship

Pending decision from
OSU
Tulane
Fordham
Pace and Hosftra

i am an international student with about 6 yr working experience in banking. I need some opinion on choosing the right school

Northeastern has a good location, the course is about 1.5 yr which should provides sufficient time frame for me to build up my network and hunt for job during study.

Brandeis … i wasn’t aware of the location when I apply. I got in… I am a bit concern on this one as their business school is fairly new… unranked… it is a small school with high national rank… but how about their job placement?

U of SF… this is one of the back up school. i doubt i will go there… they are CFA partner… but not a great school

I am unsure about OSU and Tulane due to their location. I always prefer to stay in NYC or Boston… But the both seem like top ranked, famous school…

finally… i haven’t receive a respond from those NYC school. Fordham is a great choice… if i can get in… I am unsure on Pace… Pace is in a perfect location, high placement rate… but the school is fairly low ranked. and same as hofstra.

In terms of getting a job in finance… ( i am not looking for those top finance job… any ok job will do) is location or ranking more important to u?
