<p>Hi all.
So I have received offers from three finance programmes: Oxford MSc Financial Economics, Columbia MA Mathematics of Finance and M.I.T. MFin.</p>

<p>M.I.T. is M.I.T. after all but the it is just too pricey. Besides, the program is new so do not know about its prospects.</p>

<p>Job prospect out of Oxford MSc Financial Economics is said to be ok in HK. But I am really dying to know the career chances in London or N.Y.</p>

<p>Don't know much about the Columbia MA Math of Finance.</p>

<p>I would be grateful if you guys can post some opinions about which one of the three is most worth going and about the job opportunities. </p>

<p>Thanks to all.</p>

<p>I don’t know the answer to your question, but would you be willing to post your undergrad stats?</p>

<p>What do you want to be when you graduate? The MS Math/Financial Engineering programs will get you quant roles. The MIT program will allow you to go into trading/banking. MIT will be a little better than Columbia simply because the degree will be looked at as a generalized masters in finance and you wont get pigeonholed into just quant positions. </p>

<p>Quantnet and my site both have information on these schools.</p>
