Indian Student: LSE MSc Finance vs LBS MFA — Worth It for IB/PE
Graduating BSc Finance from Mumbai in 2026. No internships yet, but I’m sitting for CFA L1 in May 2026 and plan to work June 2026 – April 2027 before my master’s. Considering LSE MSc Finance (10 months) vs LBS MFA (16 months).
I’ve heard international students struggle to land jobs in London (visa + no internship built in). My goal = 2 years in London → return to India for PE → MBA later.
👉 Is the brand name (LSE/LBS) worth the risk without prior finance experience, or am I better off working in India and going straight for an MBA?
