Masters in Finance - University of Maryland vs University of Rochester

Hello everyone. I have applied for MSF at various universities. I have received admits from the following universities :

1) University of Maryland
2) University of Rochester

Which Program will be a better choice? I am really confused as to which university I should choose Can you please rank the universities.

 

From what I know about Maryland, the program closely mirrors the CFA curriculum. I'd suggest Maryland for equity research or other types of jobs. Not too familiar with their placements, though.

"The way to make money is to buy when blood is running in the streets."
 

I don't know why there is a need to make multiple posts about the same thing. Regardless, go with Maryland. Rochester is in the middle of nowhere. Both programs are so so and you'll have to network hard to find a job from either.
