You should really think hard about your decisions when it comes to programs here as an international student. With both of those schools it is going to be very hard. The proximity to LA will be more beneficial than FSU.CGU is a decent named school in the finance community due to Peter Drucker with a very good MFE program. They have a good list of professors with some new faculty who were practitioners. One of their profs has some famous patents under his name from his time at Oracle. He developed bunch of unique credit risk models. They have a very devoted staff to the program and they are working very hard to make it better everyday. I was given admission there with 25% scholarship. I research the program extensively. One of the best parts of CGU is the fact that you have access to the WHOLE Claremont College Consortium. This includes Claremont McKenna which is a top 5 liberal arts college with a famous economics/finance undergrad school. Their faculty consists of only the top 10 school PhD's. If you were to look at the recruiting from last year you will see that UBS, BCG, Bloomberg, Thomson Reuters, Lazard , and so many more goto Claremont McKenna to recruit. If you goto the career fairs at the other schools I am told the recruiters are more than happy to interview you if you have a good resume. You won't get interviewed for the top positions but you will get your leg into some big firm if you are good.This year one of the students who is about to graduate got a position at a big foreign investment bank and will be doing electricity trading for them. He will be working out of Houston. Many other students have got jobs already. Unfortunately most of the students who have got jobs are American students. The situation is not the same for international students. They are having a hard time finding a job. That is why I am skeptical. Usually it is recommended to attend one of the top branded schools if you're an international student.Think about it...I just put some of the things I found out about CGU program.
