Best one year Masters for FO IB?
I am debating between Uva MS Global Commerce, Duke MMS, Vanderbilt/Boston College/ Texas Msfs?
I am currently a senior at a non-target. I am studying finance, and I currently have a 4,0 GPA. I am graduating in 3 years and the current recruiting at my campus isn't too promising. So I figured I could take the 4th year to pursue a one year masters and maybe propel myself to better career choices. Any advice would be excellent.
Vandy, then UVA for east coast banking. UTA for Texas finance.
Only go for UVA global commerce program if you're a US citizen. Because international students aren't eligible for OPT(they stay in Charlottesville for 3 months and therefore not eligible for opt). Moreover, international students can't return to Charlottesville from Spain.
I am a US Citizen. Do you think I'd be making a mistake by choosing UVA over Vandy? I like both programs a lot. I just have a bias towards UVA.
Yes. The UVA GC curriculum is a joke. You get access to recruiting activities though
Take Vanderbilt. I like the new global commerce program, but you will be overseas for a lot of it and won't have the networking and recruiting ability like you would have by being in the US full time.
I appreciate the helpful feedback. I will definitely plan on pursuing the MSF at Vandy then.
Hey TNA, if for some reason I don't get accepted to Vanderbilt what do you think should be my second option?
UTA would be a good option, but realize you'll have working in Texas as the big momentum push. BC is a fine program, but I think they focus mainly on their PT program vs. FT. UVA is a good program and I like their global masters, but I would caution that this program is really for someone looking for an international experience and who can handle having a non-traditional career entry point.
Furthermore, this global masters is specifically not focusing on international students. It is the brain child of the dean and has a lot of people behind it. I wouldn't look at this as an international student cash cow like some other programs.
ask yourself how you can recruit and meet employers at Charlottesville when you're overseas?!
I thought a lot of the recruiting was done during the Fall semester, and I believe you stay in Charlottesville until December.
