Should I get my MSF (Junior, Athlete, Non-Target)
I’m currently a junior at a low level non-target but have done pretty well networking and maxing out my opportunities at my school. I just landed a pretty decent internship for commercial banking for next summer but want to go into IB. I didn’t start exploring the industry until end of sophomore year.
Should I recruit for FT roles in a smaller city or go back to get MSF or other advanced degree?
If so what are the better programs to look at? (Preferably east coast/southeast)
Thanks in advance!
Vanderbilt and UTexas off the top of my head have good placement, especially Vandy. One of the top MSFs out there
I’ll definitely check them out, thanks
Recruit FT and then lateral up MSFs are almost always a waste
I nearly did this and think it’s a good idea, plan was to play another season of my sport and recruit with current class of sophomores for a summer analyst gig. Was working out great and had some super days at top notch banks but ended up getting lucky and found a place that opened a spot for that summer.
I recently graduated from UTexas MSF. Based on your post, I'd recommended looking at FT asap, as MSF is more introductory and if you already are pursuing a finance related undergrad and have a good grasp of basic concepts you would probably find your time better spent on the job and in the "real world". Internships are more valuable than an MSF in my opinion. That is not to say the MSF is not valuable, but something to consider.
