Hi guys,
I recently received two MSF offers, one from UIUC and one from Boston College.
I am still wondering which one is better in terms of future career development and job opportunity.
Does anyone have comments on this two business school?
Thank you so much for your help!

Mixed emotions on this one. Both are good schools and both have had MSF programs for a while now (although I believe UIUC is the older of the two). Both have strong, natural finance markets close by - Chicago and Boston. If I had to chose between them, I would probably pick Boston College. What the program has working for itself that UIUC does not is the fact that they've had a PT MSF for years. A lot of local, finance professionals have gone through the program and these will be invaluable when it comes time to network for a job. The education at both schools will be good, but BC has the advantage. If you are domestic, BC will be the better choice as well as UIUC is predominately international students.
Hope this helps.

Hey nosaejohn!
UIUC and Boston College, both are extremely good colleges however when compared on the basis of ROI, UIUC has a slight upper hand. The average salary of UIUC graduates is relatively higher than Boston graduates and the tuition fee is also comparatively lower than Boston college.
Talking about the curriculum, the MSF program at Boston College offers a STEM-designated quantitative finance track. This 10-course track is highly quantitative and emphasizes financial analytical skills that students can bring to workplaces in corporate finance, asset management, and investment banking.
On the other hand, At UIUC, most core and required courses would be completed in the first fall semester; however, depending upon a student’s background and career goals, some core courses may be substituted or taken in the spring semester. This gives students a sense of flexibility. Also, you have a choice of 50+ electives to choose from.
In my opinion, if you do not wish to spend a hefty amount of money on fees and need good salaries post your masters program, UIUC is a good fit for you. However, if money is not a constraint in your case then you can go in for Boston College as the US school ranking for Boston College is better than that of UIUCs.
