<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Could you give me your opinions on MS Finance programs: Washington U in St Louis, Boston College, George Washington U, U of Maryland. Which is the best choice to seek a job in the northeast after graduation?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>there is also one at Princeton…</p>
<p>If anyone knows anything about it, please post.</p>
<p>I’ve been admitted to WUSTL and Maryland and I am still waiting for BC and GWU. </p>
<p>Some people say WUSTL’s MS Finance program is fairly new and the location of the school is less ideal in terms of job hunting.</p>
<p>What’s your opinions, guys?</p>
<p>You should try posting this in the MBA forum; a lot of MS Fin programs have been talked about there.</p>
<p>Thank you… I posted but no reply…</p>
<p>I imagine of the schools you listed WUSL would be the best. Look carefully at the curriculum for each program, there can be a pretty big difference between MSF programs. My program, for instance, is basically a healthy mix of accounting and economics mixed in with some finance classes. Princeton’s MSF, however, is much more quantitative by comparison.</p>
<p>OP, I believe George Washington U is the best in your list. It is ranked among the top 12 Quantitative Finance Master’s Programs and No. 1 in pure Finance Master’s Programs in the Nation by Global Derivatives.

<p>Princeton has a top grad finance program, but getting onto it is tough as the program is quite small. It only has less than 35 students each year.

<p>If you would like to consider attending a West Coast school, Haas has a top FE program too. But like Princeton’s, it is an extremely hard program to get onto. Haas has the best career placement statistics amongst the tier 1 schools for grad level finance programs.
