What do you guys think of LBS and NYU MFin programs?
I have interviews with them this coming week. They're both great programs although LBS caters to older experienced professionals while NYU leans younger (similar to MIT in that regard while LBS is more like berkeley with respect to age). Wondering if anyone has input on the quality of job placements from those schools as I heard mixed things, and the websites don't have concrete placement info similar to princeton mfin.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that the NYU program was like.. an academic program. With research, and a PhD track.
Somewhat familiar with both; ended up not applying to either. Based on the people I know (which is a smaller sample size), I am more impressed with LBS. Recruiting for both is very regional, with their city being the focal point; that said, LBS has an extremely international student body (probably only outmatched by INSEAD) and NYU has an above-average international student body for a US school (under the impression they're quite rich, though). LBS seems to have done a better job of not being as banking-centric as NYU. Networking is the name of the game at NYU; alumni seem pretty responsive (which may be a distinct advantage over LBS) but you are also expected to literally put in 20x the effort in making contacts than your competitors at Booth, Wharton and HBS.
I think you're talking about the MBA programs at those schools, not the masters in finance.
You're right - my bad. Disregard everything I said.
PM me, have a good friend who did LBS MiF - can give you some insights. Keep in mind that unless you have an EU passport now it is really hard to get work in London (no more post study work visa...)
