RSM vs HKUST
Hey,
I am currently a first year undergraduate student at the Rotterdam School of Management (RSM). Which is an OK school. I believe it’s a semi-target if not target for London.
I am aiming for investment banking in Hong Kong. I know that HK loves US/UK targets.
I also know it’s nearly impossible to transfer to an US/UK target schools, so I won’t even bother applying to those schools.
However, I am able to transfer to HKUST Business School (Hong Kong). But I will have to start from year 1 (which means that I will waste one year at RSM). I believe the HKUST Business School places quite well for HK banking.
Do you guys think it is worth to transfer into year 1 of HKUST? And does HKUST place well in London? (For if I eventually decide that I don’t want to work in HK)
Or should I just stay at RSM?
BTW, RSM is 3 years whereas HKUST is 4 years.
I would like to hear your opinions.
Thanks.
P.S. I am Chinese and I am able to speak Cantonese and Mandarin, so language proficiency is not a problem. Also, I am able to work in Europe but not in Hong Kong and I don’t know if HK banks provides analysts with working visas.
Can you do one/a couple semesters abroad and/or intern in HK? That way you would be able to network in HK while still only spending 3 yrs in university. Also, RSM may give more credibility to your English skills.
I know a French-Asian who is interning at a European bank's branch in HK. So it's definitely manageable.
