Nova SBE MSc Finance

Hi,

What are your guys thoughts on the MSc Finance at Nova in Lisbon? I’ve been accepted to a target MSc in London but cannot afford the £50k fees.

However, the MSc Finance at Nova SBE in Lisbon caught my eye. It’s a fraction of the price (c. €10k) the idea of living in the sun sounds great. The programme is also 1.5 years which I believe means I have two shots at internship recruitment.

I have a decent profile, with 1+ year of boutique IB and PE experience. My plan is to work in London and I don’t require sponsorship.

No scholarships unfortunately. I’d have to take a €70k loan for a UK masters which I am quite reluctant to do
