Hi Hjort,
I interested in a career in finance.
What do you think of the MBA w/CFA programs from Wilfrid Laurier or John Molson vs getting an MBA from a more prestigious school like Rotman, Ivey or Shulich?
Which one do you think will be more advantageous into breaking into a career in finance? Currently I'm working as an engineer.
Thanks for your help!

I like the concept of the MBA/CFA Prep programs you mention especially for student who need more structure for their exam preparation. However, I am not sure how much these programs add for someone who has the initiative to prepare on her own for the CFA exams. Further, at major schools such as Rotman with a large offering of electives in finance one could select courses that would help prepare for the exams.

I like the MBA/CFA concept as well. For me the biggest attraction is the fact that it will take me a little over three years to obtain an MBA as well as two levels of the CFA exams and all this doing it part time.
If I were to do a rotman MBA parttime it would take 5+ years to get to the same point (3 for MBA, 2+ for CFA). I guess my question is, is getting just an MBA at a more presitigous school like rotman better or worse than getting an MBA+CFA from a less prestigious school like wilfrid laurier. At the moment, I'm very interested in the MBA+CFA program at wilfrid laurier but I don't want to sell my self short because its not a well known school. I believe I have the necessary admissions qualificiation to get into rotman. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
