University of Rochester, MBA or Imperial College London, MSc Economics and Strategy for Business?

Hi, everyone, I got this two offers. I know it sounds like an easy choice. However, I am an international student that needs a visa to either work in US or UK. I am aiming to work in management consulting after graduation. Which one would be a better choice?

MBA from Univeristy of Rochester is a 2 year full-time MBA, STEM designed, which means I could work under OPT 3 years after graduation.

MSc Economics and Strategy is under Imperial College Business School, a interdisciplinary MSc between Finance and Management.

Thank you!
