Syracuse Whitman or Buffalo school of management?

<p>Hi all</p>

<p>I have got admitted by both graduate school. I am seeking my master's degree in finance. It's not MBA and both school have great aspects. I cann't make decision. Please give me your pros/cons. Thank you!</p>

<p>such as reputation/network in business field
academic
employment after graduation..</p>

<p>If the tuition doesn't count, which business school is better? please try to specify whether the comments are about MBA or MSF.</p>

<p>comments towards the location as well, considering a finance career.
Thx~</p>

<p>What is your ultimate goal? Syracuse has revamped their MSF program and the professor driving it is great. Buffalo has a good program also, but if your goal is to work after your MSF I would go with Syracuse simply because of the stronger alumni base. </p>

<p>I have both programs listed on my website. </p>

<p>syracuse hands down!</p>

<p>Syracuse totally. Whitman is really hard to beat. The program is among one of the most noted in the Northeast.</p>

<p>Is it really? I’ve been looking at their supply chain programs and they are a school that has popped up. Deadline to apply is Jan 1st though so I better make a decision.</p>

<p>Ok, I am going to give you guys the low down. </p>

<p>I went to Syracuse for my UG and tried to do my MSF there. I eventually went to Villanova instead. </p>

<p>Syracuse is a great school, around 38-40 in the nation for business schools. Not too bad. On campus recruiting is mainly F500 firms, but there are a TON of alumni on the street.</p>

<p>With that said, I think there are currently better options. Yildiray Yildirim is heading up the MSF program now and it is full steam a head. They are working on incorporating the CFA L1 into the program (which I think is a good idea). There are a bunch of other things I would like to see them do, but I have not had the chance to talk to him yet.</p>

<p>Definitely Syracuse. Great alumni base in finance and accounting.</p>
