Hey guys,
I need help. I have been admitted to MS Finance at Rochester and the MS Finance at Stevens institute of technology. Which of the following programs is worth the investment and will bring a quick return. Though, SIT program is a bit cheaper. Please Advise!!!!

My vote would be for the Stevens institute in Hoboken NJ. I lived only a couple of miles from Stevens hence can speak from my experience. Apart from the lower tuition, it is located near the NY city. It takes only 5 minute ride in PATH train to cross over into lower Manhattan. The networking opportunity would be vast and during my work in tech on wallstreet with an IB, I personally met many folks from Stevens.
A Kelly MBA alumni, with a full tuition waiver, once told me that if you want to choose an institute make sure it is near a major hub(NY,DC,Atlanta,Seattle,SFO) as she missed out on the networking and eventually on better career opportunities.
Rochester is in the upstate NY and I am not too sure of the opportunity for a finance graduate. You would eventually come down to NY city and compete with Stevens alums. Then why not play on their side and have a better advantage .
Still, to make a sound decision talk to the alums of both institute and then take the decision accordingly.

Hello gerygrace
Congrats on admission to both programs !
Although I would personally prefer SIT location, seems like Rochester is better ranked program in all rankings available.

Not only that, SIT program is not even ranked.
That would explain the difference in investment/cost.
At University of Rochester: Simon you could expect average weighted salary of $84,115 and 57% salary increase.
Therefore, I advise you yo go to Simon.
Good Luck !
