BOCCONI AFC Vs Msc Finance
Hi everyone, I would go straight to the point! ππΌ My goal is working in London (IB, M&A). Bocconi course Accounting finance & control (AFC) could give me this opportunity? Because my other idea is: - take gap year - prepare Gmat - try apply to Hec/ Lbs / Essec (cv in few words: my final grade is 110L, gpa 28/30, internship in UniCredit + summer school LSE & ambassador)
What you suggest ? Wait a year and try other business school or accept offer from Bocconi?
I'm was in the same boat and decided to accept the AFC (italian taught) offer instead of taking the gap year since i got the full tuition waiver.
Thanks for the advice.
The only thing to mention (Bocconiβs reputation is undisputed in LDN IB) is that the cohort for the Mfin is around 160 and AFC around 80, so there will be pretty high competition for SA spots. However, the program is still good and respected.
AFC ITA 160 students, AFC ENG 80 students, Finance 160 students, Finanza 80 students: a total of 500 students. AFC is very strong for Corporate Finance in Milan, especially Mediobanca/Lazard/Rothschild/BofA love students from AFC (I think it is a bit boring degree, very focused on reporting and accounting standards, treasury and financial management, but in Bocconi we are still missing a truly corporate finance focused degree). Finance is very well respected in Milan/London, but it is really tough. You study topics that will be extremely useless if you want to do IB. If you did BIEF/CLEF, you can maybe do IM or CEMS or China Mim if you have a sufficiently high GPA. Probably in London, these courses are more respected than AFC for IB (not in Milan) and you can leverage the finance knowledge of your bachelor's (also you will be great exit in MBB/Tier 2 Consulting/PE /VC )
