MIT MFin vs NUS MFin for Singapore IBD/AM

Hello all!

Please help me decide between Massachussets Institute of Technology Master in Finance and National University of Singapore MSc Finance.

My goal is to work in Alternative Asset Management/IB in Singapore. I don't really want to work in the US.

MIT is an extremely prestigious university with a top ranked finance degree. On the other hand, NUS is not as prestigious globally and its finance masters is very new and doesn't require GMAT. But, NUS gives more networking opportunities in Singapore that's a plus point.

Which program I should aim for?

Thanks in advance for advice.
