(need suggestions) about which program I should choose (MASTER)-Fordham (thanks)
This year, Fordham business school creates many new programs:like MBA in advanced applied finance, and MS in business analysis
Initially, I apply for the MSQF 2012 fall. But, last week, the director from MS program tells me that I cannot be admitted by MSQF program. But, he just listed other programs. And said that if I agree to convert program to another, I will be reviewed again.
There are two programs that I am considering. One is MBA in advanced applied finance. The other is MS in business analysis.
I reagrd being a financial analyst with CFA as my target.
I need some suggestions about which program I should choose...
PS; Can anyone provides some information about these two programs(in the internet, I do not find anything about them)?
Hate to say it, but having $150K in your pocket is a lot better than having an MBA from Fordham.
Yes, the MBA is worth something.
Yes, Fordham has a lot of smart graduates.
But I'd much rather spend $70K on an MBA from UW Madison than $150K on an MBA from Fordham. Better yet, get an MS in Financial Engineering from Baruch. They have a very strong program.
What position are you trying to shoot for? IBD, S&T, Research, Consulting?
Guys, don't encourage this.
1.) Drop Fordham. Fordham is a decent Catholic school and there are a lot of smart people, especially in undergrad there. However, if you can get into Fordham, you can get into Rutgers, SUNY, Baruch, or UW Madison. Unless you are a devout Catholic or interested in doing a JD with your MBA, you probably don't want to do your MBA there.
2.) Save $100K and do your MBA at a state school.
3.) Avoid paying $500/month in extra debt service or get about $400/month in dividends from your investments.
Paying for a Fordham MBA is the dumbest waste of time and money. Horrible overall ranking and a non-target school. I see pictures of people holding up a Fordham MBA certificate and it's incredibly sad and funny at the same time
+1 on dropping Fordham ASAP
