Warwick or Edinburgh Mfin

Hello, I have recently got offer from both of these uni. I'm a non EU candidate who'll be studying at one of the university mentioned above for MSc finance. I'm stuck in a dilemma as to which university to pick. I want to know if my chances to break into IB in the UK right after my Master are better if I decide to go to Warwick or should I choose Edinburgh over it.

The pros e con of these uni Warwick Pro: semi target school, wbs is very famous Con: located outside London so not easy to network/find job. Low Qs rankings

Edinburgh Pro: high qs ranking, located in the UK second financial hub Con: rearch oriented teaching, difficult to get high grades

wbs definitely a different league compared to edinburgh imo.

but both arent in the target level of lbs lse oxford hec so can’t say if either are worth it

 

Absolutely agree with you!
I just worry that Coventry being an out-of-town location it can be more difficult to network and find internship opportunities
