Part-Time MFin?

Wrestling with the idea of pursuing a 12-month MFin within Canada at Schulich, Laurier, or Queen's. Career-wise, I'd like to open the door to PE Consulting (A&M, Bain PEG, EY-P) long-term. Currently working in back-office corp. fin. from BComm background.  

Pros: 

-   Great exposure to a new group of folks

-   New opportunities for clubs, cases, & competitions

-   Great career support services & alumni network

-   Studying can be done at no detriment to career/money (like with FT programs)

Cons: 

-   Expensive; are sometimes seen as cash grabs for sub-par content 

-   No re-recruitment co-op placement unless I opt for FT MFin in UofT or 1.5/2year program

-   Not as highly regarded as MBAs, nor as valuable as compared with their European counterpart

Anyone did this before? 

Just in case this get's auto-sent to PE... MANAGEMENT CONSULTING, MANAGEMENT CONSULTING, MANAGEMENT CONSULTING - it's like beetlejuice, three times does the trick.
