MBA/MSc in Finance Boston area
I have been doing some research on MBA over Master in Finance and I have learned that an MBA might be more beneficial for me. A little background of me, I have over 3 years of experience working in Compliance in the big 4, as well as top banks (this includes contracting/independent consulting as well as full-time work). I have always been an avid fan of IB, PE, Finance related work, because of the knowledge the professionals have, and also quite frankly, because of the money. As you all know compliance will always be overhead, and I know for sure I can do well in finance related roles (in which I am flexible) but due to my lack of knowledge in the field and education I am unable to yet choose one route. My undergrad degree was focused on what I currently due for work -- Financial Crimes Compliance, and while I like the role, I want more for myself.
A little about me, professionally, I used to model during undergrad, and still do part-time. Speak English, Spanish and Portuguese (which would open doors for me in LATAM division) and I am little past my mid 20's, (still young to study and change careers). In my undergrad, I graduated Cum Laude with a 3.5 and I am really excited to do this because I never wanted to take the GRE/GMAT and now most universities are being flexible and waiving this out.
I can't afford to quit working to go to school but I am looking to relocate to Boston to try a new city during the pandemic, work remotely and apply to school while being there and the schools that I am looking at are UMass Boston, Northeastern, Boston College, Boston University and Suffolk. Which of these schools offer the opportunity for me? My aim is to work in a large investment bank/hedge fund/private equity/asset manager firm. I know some of you would say go to Harvard, MIT or whatever but reality is, I am not going to get accepted so I rather just save myself the application time.
Based on my background, my story and everything, please let me know your insights.
