I already searched in the search tab so please don't bite my head off for asking..

What do you'll think about Claremont MFE Program on
http://www.quantnet.com/mfe-programs-rankings/

It is listed as a Top 20 MFE Program in country.

Thank you for your help

 

Pal, your list is interesting. This comes right out of the top of my head that tuition at Claremont is madly expensive, among the most expensive in the bunch. I really like the M.A degree at Columbia, which is surprisingly among the cheapest. The prestige and the ranking outweigh Claremont by a long shot, why don't you go for it ?

Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There's no honor in taking the after school job at Mickey D's. Honor's in the dollar, kid.
 

Nope I'm talking about Columbia's M.A (in the Math Dept.) not MFE because the M.A seems to be the cheaper and actually the longer established one according to the website U showed. You target NYU and Rutgers then why not Columbia (and oddly, as I said, Columbia's M.A seems to have the lowest tuition among those) ? I'm not anyone to judge but all those programs are ranked at quantnet already so they must all be pretty good. New York is without even a question the Mecca of finance therefore why not NYU or Columbia even Baruch instead of Claremont. If you have any personal reason to prefer the West Coast then I don't have any opinions.

The Claremont MFE just isn't that good IMO. It is directly competing with Claremont McKenna's new MFin, CGU lacks any prestige, and it is in LA.

The financial jobs market there is miniscule. Then you are competing with USC, UCLA, UCSD, the Claremont College, and any kids from Stanford/Cal who want to go South. The program isn't good enough for NY firms to send a recruiter there just for MFE jobs. You would probably need to piggyback off of McKenna's MFin recruiting, which will be for less quantitative jobs.
