Need your thoughts

[arussian]

Hi everyone!

Recently I got admitted to Northeastern's Master in Finance program. The problem is that I can't really decide whether this program is worth the time and money.

Would very much appreciate your thoughts on the issue.

were you accepted to any other program?

 

[arussian]

Not yet.
Got waitlisted at MIT MFin and rejected at Olin Business School.
Still pending at Princeton and U of T at Austin.
Any suggestions?

 

[alain]

wait, then decide. Did they give you a deadline?

Usually, you get all the proof, placement stats you ever need right at first glance.
If you have to ask,...

Yes, I've got time till February 11. However I am afraid I won't get a final decision from MIT and U of T at Austin by this time. If I knew about the quality of NorthEastern's MF I'd go ahead and join the program without any further thoughts.
Or should I even extend the number of universities and include such programs as Tulane, Vanderbilt, Purdue Universities and Boston College?

Unfortunately, I've not been able to find any placement data of any, let alone, recent graduates. Probably, I've been looking in the wrong place.

From my experience last year, wait list at MIT never moves. I was wait-listed till all the rounds were done (3 in total) and rejected at the end. Last year no one from wait-list moved up.

Year, that's what I was thinking. Thank you.

May I ask you where did you end up studying?
