Hello All,

I'm leaning towards doing an MFin (as oppposed to an MFE) and I was wondering what types of jobs people from this background are taking up? Is there much of a demand for MFin students in roles outside of investment banking?

I've also noticed the lack of well-known MFin programs in the US, and was wondering why this is. There's Princeton, and then there's the rest. Chicago, Stanford, Harvard, Wharton and Kellogg all have propects for creating excellent programs (not to mention profit) but they don't seem to have gotten in to the game.
In the UK for example, there's a slew of top programs I can choose from (Imperial, Cambridge, Oxford, LSE) but since my preference is to live in NYC, I trying to get in to a US program.

On that note, are there any UK alumnis working in NYC who can comment about the feasibility of securing a job in NYC whilst studying in London?
