Stuck between Bocconi and LSE MSc Finance

What do you mean it doesn’t give you a working visa? You get the graduate visa through LSE
Yes but afaik that doesn't allow you to work after you graduate, as in you'd still need sponsorship to take a ft role
uh no, you get 2 years to stay in the country and find work, there’s no sponsorship required
Assuming that you require sponsorship for both (and this is a key assumption) then I would undoubtedly advise on Bocconi because it is a 2 year programme. I think it’s understated how difficult it is to recruit while doing an MSc Finance at LSE because it’s only 9 months. You are basically automatically ruled out of so many SA roles (because they know you’re not a penultimate year) and there are limited FT spots. If you were to do LSE your best bet would realistically be off-cycles, which is a lot more unstructured of a process and risky to hedge your bets in getting.
Your experience seems good and I think you would have a better chance of landing a FT role you’re happy with by doing a 2 year programme at Bocconi because you’d be able to do a summer internship in between.
I'm italian, I would need visa only for London
Apologies, I misspoke - I meant to say if you require sponsorship to work in London even if you go to LSE
