US Masters In Finance Rankings?

US Masters In Finance Rankings?

What are the best, objectively? No shit that these programs won't get someone into MF PE or anything close to a Tiger Cub, but some of us just want to break into an MM in a FO role because we didn't start off on the right foot initially. 

Can someone with actual experience touch on the best MSF programs? (American please).

There aren't many programs that are known to consistently place in FO for MM or better. Out of the programs I am familiar with MIT & Vandy are consistently great in placement nationally, and WashU, UTexas, and USC are solid but more regional. These programs all have the capacity to get you to at least MM IB if you come in with a solid plan and network effectively.
