Duisenberg School of Finance

I'm currently looking around at business schools in Europe for a MFin in the next year or so and I came across a school in The Netherlands called the Duisenberg School of Finance. It's seems interesting, but has a kinda steep price tag for a pretty new school (~26K euros per yr). Has anyone heard anything about this place? How's placement, environment, overall opinions from firms/banks in Europe? Any info would be great. Anthony, looking at you, bud....

DSF is a high quality school but I would not go there. I have had presentations at my uni so i know a little about them but wasn't very interested.

I would choose RSM over DSF. RSM has good education, a wider network and less expensive.

I recently got admission offer in their Master in Corporate Finance and Banking program.. I contacted couple of people from the institution, all of them gave a very positive feedback. Right now I am in Netherlands, and it seems that the school has good industry contacts.. Placement rate is at 90 percent with starting salary in range of 40k- 60k. The good thing is their scholarship and loan scheme.. They arrange 100 percent funds for you which also cover you living cost.. For me, that makes it a better choice than RBS... The program is much more robust than RBS's MIF program.. However, RBS has better industry links surely because of its history... DSF is a baby in comparison but with strong potential...
