UMD BU DUKE WUSTL MSF Decision

Hey guys!

I've recently applied to several MSF programs and got admitted to some of them. My career goal is to enter the US asset management industry upon graduation and i only had internship experience in the banking industry.

I am wondering which program could be better for a finance career in the US. The programs are listed as below.

U Maryland - MSF (Q) Boston U - MSMF Duke MQM Finance track WUSTL MSF (Q) I personally prefer to choose between Duke and WUSTL but would like to hear any advice. Thanks!
