MSc Finance EDHEC and Vanderbilt

Hello! I recently got into MSF programs at EDHEC and Vanderbilt and wanted to know which of the two programs would be better for my future career. For EDHEC: I am originally from the United States and do not speak French well enough to function in a professional environment. Does anyone know what London recruitment/name recognition is for EDHEC? Is the MSc Fin program well known in Banking/Finance around the world (i.e. would I be able to get a job at a target bank in the US with this degree)? I know Vanderbilt's program is pretty old and decently well known, but which program would be better offer the most opportunities for career development? Any and all feedback.information regarding the two schools is welcome!
