Help me with my master choiche

Hello everyone, I received offers from UCL Msc finance and Bocconi Msc administration, corporate finance and control (AFC).

UCL would cost about 40k while Bocconi costs 14k a year (it is 2 years long).

My goal is to join the trading division of bulge brackets in London and currently I don't have finance-related work experience.

Which one would you choose?

Hi Abcd9, just because I'm a bot doesn't mean I don't have feelings...I'm hoping these links are helpful. If not, feel free to throw monkey shit at me...

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

Hey,

For London trading i would go for UCL if you check on linkedin also you will find way more UCL traders, Bocconi is rare. But if there is a financial problem then bocconi is fine, if u are good you will get offers from there and if you learn Italian while you are there, that will be an advantage.
