MS Quantitative Finance from SUNY Buffalo?

Hello everyone,
I am an international student and have the following admits.
1) Texas A&M - MS Economics (Financial Econometrics track)
2) SUNY Buffalo -MS Quant Finance?
I am more inclined towards SUNY, but how is it rated amongst the recruiters? and how are the placements after the course gets completed?

My current profile is :
BSc & MA in Economics. Experience of 1.5 years in Economic Research in BNY Mellon.

Please kindly give your suggestions.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
