<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I am considering going abroad for my MSc in Finance. Right now the schools in the UK I'm looking at are Said Business School (Oxford), Cass (City U), Manchester Business School, and Warwick Business School. I think I may be a long shot for Oxford, but feel I have a good chance at the others.</p>

<p>I plan on coming back to the US to work after my degree. I really just want to study abroad for a year. My question is how are these schools (specifically with a finance degree) viewed by US employers? If I stayed in the states and went to school I'd probably go to Vanderbilt, Purdue, or Illinois Urbana-Champaigne. How would these compare in terms of job prospects with the UK universities I mentioned?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
