Which Finance Master to Choose
Hi everyone, I am a graduate student at the University of Catania, Italy, studying Business Economics. You definatelly haven't heard of it, and that is why I am searching for a highly reputable finance master's program, my dream is to break in IB in London, but working in other big European Capitals (Paris, Frankfurt) could be good too. I will graduate in September 2023, with my final exam taking place around the first week of September. This is a problem for my admission to most masters programs, as they typically begin in early September (St gallen,WHU,SSE, Edhec). Could you help me understand which master I have a shot into? And which others I could try?
My Average is 26,63/30 and i should be graduating with 104-106.
GMAT Practice are around 670-690, but I do still have 5 more weeks to practice, I hope I can break the 700/710.
I'm currently doing an internship as financial advisor/family banker at Mediolanum Bank
The Finance Masters I'm applying to are: HEC, Essec, Bocconi (AFC Aswell other than finance) and Esade (Although it is a 1 year program, so I'm not too sure).
Unfortunatelly I can't apply in anything in London, since 35-60k per year + living in London is way above my financial possibilities.
I am fluent only in Italian and English, so programs such as ESCP are not an option for me.
I was thinking about IE or Rotterdam, but I'm not sure how good they are.
Please help
Would you not consider taking out a loan for the London masters? If you got an IB job from the masters, you could easily afford to pay it back
To be fair I would do it if I had a shot at LBS/LSE/OxBridge. But I don't think taking a 50-70k loan is worth it if for Imperial/Warwick. Do you think it's worth it anyway?
I agree - I'd only do it for the schools you mentioned above, not worth it for Warwick/Imperial.
I'm also applying for masters but if I get accepted into LSE/LBS/Oxford, I'll have to take out a 50k loan.
Best of luck
Did you apply to the Oxford MFE in stage 2? @designa888
If so, mind sharing your stats?

100% agreed not for the others
What are your stats?
