MSc in finance in Bocconi, Esade, Frankfurt SOM
Can anyone give a brief idea about an MSc at these 4 schools. How are their placements for Non-EU students? I happened to go through FT rankings regarding placements and they don't seem consistent with the reports on the official websites. Help please?
Boconni and ESADE. Frankfurter SOM is not a good school, career wise, trust me. For a non EU student to be placed in EU, they would have learn the language of that country. London is also possible but hard. I would advise youto go to a school in the UK since universities in EU(even Boconni) are not very well known outside of EU.
Thanks Noelle90..I got in touch with one of the MSc in Finance students from Bocconi and he told he since the economy of Southern Europe isn't flourishing as well as that of Northern Europe, it would be better to apply in the north since jobs are easier to get for non EU students. So I'm still not sure. Both SSE and FSFM are good in those aspects but it's a head scratcher.
SSE is the best after Bocconi in EU. HEC is a softcore program. SSE is challenging intellectually and they have exchange program in 2nd year including to some M7 MBAs. If you network well and use your host school's network and resources, you can even land something in North America. Again, please don't go to FSOM. That school sucks. You will love Stockholm
Can't say about overseas, but in Europe both ESADE and Bocconi are super respected.

It's also ranked very highly. Been trying to apply for some mid mgmt position in a well-know unicorn and the majority of the continental European management had diploma from IE, ESADE or INSEAD.
If you want to work in London, go to Bocconi. Look up on LinkedIn people at MS, GS or JPM for example, or any other top asset manager or PE fund...the number of Bocconi grads trumps the rest. (disclosure: I studied in the US and Asia, always thought many EU schools were inferior - regardless whether they're more theoretical/less practical or not, if you're looking for a top job in London, Bocconi carries a massive brand weight and quality of alumni network)
Those are mostly Europeans
True. But a very small portion of students get jobs in London, the others are either sent back to their country or receive their ROI 3-4 years after completing their program...either way, it's a long shot.
I was thinking of going to FSFM, so wanted to ask why you think that FSFM is bad and you shouldnt go there? Also, im a non-German, but EU citizen and know Geman.
I ask cause looking at FSFM ranking and their location and programe, they seem really good
