NYU Part-Time vs. Columbia Executive MBA

If you had to keep your day job in Manhattan while pursuing an MBA, which one of these programs is better if your goal is to end up working at a hedge fund or bank in the NY area?

 

Without having been to business school, one thought I'd have is that I've heard EMBA recruiting is very limited, as most students are expecting to return to their current employers (who are also frequently paying for the EMBA), so the schools are hesitant to cause bad blood by helping another firm steal them.

I don't have much in the way of insight on the pros and cons of NYU v Columbia for you, though Columbia is obviously great if you are looking for hedge funds (value investing in particular). One other program you could consider would be TRIUM - you'd only be out of the city for six weeks, which might be manageable.
