Hey Mehr,

So you have decent profile for applying to top programs both in US and Europe. Most of the universities in the US offering MS in Financial Engineering/Financial Mathematics are STEM degrees. However there are a few Masters of Finance courses that you can explore that are also STEM programs.

(1)MIT Sloan - MFIN

(2)Washington University at St Louis - MSF-Q

(3)Sacred Heart University - MS in Finance & Investment management

(4)Fordham University - MS in Global Finance

(5)University of Denver - MS in Applied Quantitative Finance

(6)University of Denver - MS in Applied Quantitative Finance

(7)Fairfield University - MS in Finance

(8)University of Connecticut - MSFRM

All of these schools offer an average salary of 86,000$ post graduation and companies such as Bain & Company, Deloitte Consulting, Goldman Sachs Group, JPMorgan Chase & Co., McKinsey & Company, etc are some of the top recruiters from these US schools. More ever, companies in US are more likely to hire applicants from US universities over European universities. So you’ll have to keep that in mind while choosing between going for US or Europe
Having said that, if you want to explore schools in Europe, stick to immigration friendly countries such as France, Germany, Netherlands etc. so that you gain relevant work experience from the particular country.
Some top Masters in Finance that you explore in Europe would be :
London Business School - MSF
HEC Paris - Masters in International Finance
LSE - MSF
ESADE - MSF
ESSEC - MSF
ESCP Europe - MSF
Emylon - MSF
You can also check out our Msc in Finance Blog for more information about the degree. Here's the link : https://www.mim-essay.com/masters-finan ... y-editing/

Hope this helped!

In the US, most programs are STEM. WUSTL MSF(Q) is STEM, Vanderbilt is STEM, UT Austin is now STEM. USC is also STEM.

These are the programs you'd want to apply to. Considering that you went to UCLA, you might want to look at USC. You'd have two amazing California schools on your resume, with tons of alumni in the area to network with. Both have great on campus recruiting for you to take advantage of as well. Both are internationally recognized and known.

Please do not just list every European School you know without knowing rhe Admission Requirements...

You have to have a 3.5 GPA for LSE Finance so you will have just minor Chances of Acceptance asuming a 720 Gmat (probably non)
HEC int Finance might be also hard for you to come in ...
Same Applies to MIT,Oxford,Cambridge

But you are a rock solid Candidate at every other Business School that is listed.

In your shoes I would choose between St Gallen MBF, Bocconi Finance and SSE Finance
