Imperial MSc Finance and Accounting vs Warwick MSc Finance

Hey everyone, I have received an offer for both of the programs and have a very tough choice between the two. I was initially strongly leaning towards Imperial. I am an Econ grad so I thought that for me some knowledge of accounting and understanding of fin. statements would be quite useful. Overall I really like that the content of the course was making emphasis on practical approach rather then pure academics (no dissertation is a bonus). Also the networking opportunities I thought were much better in London. Finally Imperial’s employment report for the course looked impressive, placing 25% of people into IB whereas Warwicks report does not even disclose the figure. However I started to have some doubts after I have seen that F&A degree from Imperial was not really up there with “prestigious degrees” and was put in a tier 3 for securing IB position in London (where’s Warwick’s mFin was 2). Would kindly appreciate any opinions.
