Masters Programs for IB/PE/HF

Hi, I'm as student at a top target in the UK. My degree is 3 years and I don't think that's enough personally so I'm looking to get a masters in the US. Convenient for the geography shift as well. Apart from MFin degrees, what masters degrees place well into finance? 

Thanks!

Afaik IB/PE don't really look at master students in the US. The only remaining option is probably a MFE and try to enter a sells-side quant desk, HF, or prop trading firm from the program.
