Is Bocconi a good option for IB in the US

Hey everyone,

I've been exploring my options for pursuing a career in IB in the US , Bocconi. I know that Bocconi is based in Italy and an ocean away. I heard that it might be a good option , but I'm not sure.

I'd love to hear from anyone who has insights about Bocconi and its reputation in the US. Are there alumni who have successfully made this transition? Any advice would be greatly appreciated such as masters etc.

Please keep it in its dedicated forum (BSCH).

Anyway, flagship masters is Msc finance and no, in the US they have no idea what Bocconi is. The only European college they may know is LSE. There's virtually no way to go from Milan to NYC straight out of university but you could realistically land in London and if and when you prove yourself in London you could try your hand in NYC.
