Hey Abhinav_1696,

Well majority of the top programs for Finance are in France while a selection of top schools are in US, UK, Spain as well.
So a few pointers to keep in mind while selecting schools:
- Getting a work visa is directly linked to your job prospects, hence prefer to choose countries with flexible Visa and Immigration laws
- Being an international applicant, it is better to go for the top 5-10 schools of your target country

I will be able to help you out with more country and school suggestions if I have more details about your profile.You can take this profile evaluation so that I can share an in-depth analysis: https://mim-essay.com/profile-evaluation?gcf

Hello Abhinav_1696

Selection of countries should be personal choice.

However, best schools are in US a let's say in UK and some other parts of Europe.

At the same time those are most developed Financial markets, although China/Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia do catch up.

For US, best schools for Finance would be, Berkeley, Columbia, NYU, Booth, Wharton, MIT, CMU, etc.

For UK, I would check LBS, LSE, Imperial, Oxford.

For rest of EU, I would suggest HEC, EDHEC, University of St Gallen,Bocconi, IE Business School.

https://gmatclub.com/forum/mba-in-europ ... l#p2181213


For Canada it would be Rotman.

https://gmatclub.com/forum/mba-in-canad ... l#p2174726


For APAC I would check Melbourne Business School, National Univ of Singapore and HKUST.

https://gmatclub.com/forum/mba-in-asia- ... l#p2189456


Visit the websites of those schools and check their MS in Finance programs and admission information.



Good Luck :cool:

Hi Abhinav_1696

There are excellent Master in Finance programs in the US, Europe, and Singapore as well. Where you would want to go would depend on your preferences (geography/ranking/post-Master career goals). Have you taken the GRE/GMAT yet?

Too vague. What school in India? What was your ranking in class or GPA? Where do you work? Where are you looking to go to school?

Hi Saprakash,

Thanks for your query.

Curious to know why you aren't retaking the GRE. While you may consider applying to these schools, you should ideally retake the test; you have a strong profile - complete with leadership experience, a stint with a Big 4 firm, and meaningful extra-curricular activities; frankly, your existing score does not do justice to the same.

All the best!
