I have received an admit from Fordham University Global finance and SMU Cox msf. I know both are non- target universities for IB roles. I have 4+ years of experience in Transaction Advisory, Project Finance, Equity Research . I am an international student and post msf would like to work in US. I would like to target Asset management/ Corporate Finance/ IB roles post msf. After considering the scholarship tuition cost is almost the same for both the universities.

I have also received admit from Utah, Syracuse, Penn State.

Any suggestions will narrow down my search.

Regards, Shashank

It's actually the same case I was talking to you. XD
Nevertheless, I hope experts could solve this dilemma well. I already stated my opinion.
And Shashank, do talk to universities regarding deadlines. They are definitely important.

Where do you want to live post-graduation? All of these schools are pretty regional. If you want to live in Dallas, then SMU Cox should be your pick without a doubt. However, if you want to live elsewhere, you may consider the school closest to that region and seeing what the employment statistics are like there.
