USC MSF or Brandeis Masters in International Economics & Finance
Hi everyone,
I am facing a bit of a dilemma as I got accepted into the USC MSF program, and the Brandeis MAeif program, and am not sure which one to choose. I like the Brandeis program as it has an Economics component to it, as well as many more specialization opportunities vs. the USC program, and to be quite honest I am not 100% sure if I want to pursue finance as a career in the future (I am leaning more towards the Economics side). I feel like if I were to attend Brandeis' program I would have a wider net of career opportunities whereas if I were to go to USC I would have to stick to Finance and nothing else. At the same time, however, I think that Brandeis' reputation probably isn't nearly as good as USC's...
The MSF program at USC is new though and has never been offered before, whereas the Brandeis program has been around for a while, but considering that it is Marshall the quality of the program probably can't be bad, right? Also the alumni network for Marshall is much larger than Brandeis' and it seems that the program is a lot more selective than the MAeif program...
And not to mention I do prefer LA over Boston (or rather, Waltham, Mass.)
I am a bit conflicted and not sure which one would be the best choice to make, any advice or insight anyone has into any of these programs would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

USC, no question
This isn't a hard decision. 100% USC.
Career wise USC would be a no-brainer. Unless you want to learn applied econ then Brandeis is a good program. Other than that USC.
USC for sure
USC.

From what I know, Brandeis is very bad career-wise. Typically, their best graduates are going to be working for the Big 4, which, at least in Europe, is not prestigious at all. As a result, it's definitely not worth the money. I don't know about USC, but at least the climate is good there!
