Request advice: Good schools offering an MFE program around Chicago/New York

[nishank gupta]

Hi,

Little background: I graduated from one of the IIT's in 2009. Have a 5.8/10 GPA.
Ill be taking out a loan to pursue my MFE. I want to be doubly sure to get a job after the course which can pay back the amount.So should I apply to only colleges around new york and chicago?

Are there any programmes similar to an MFE? Frankly, I am not hoping for an admission into a top school, but I want the surity of a job after an MFE/similar course.
Which schools should I apply for ideally?

I have a six year experience in trading and finance.

not top school but hope for sure placement? wtf?

I would be happy with a 80-90% placement history too.
What does top count as ? top 20?

at the top of the web page, there's a link named "MFE RANKINGS"

Click that and look around, the answers will literally be in your face

here's a picture to show you:

Could also mention where the placement statistics are on that link.

Meaning job placement? you have to click the individual links((edit: I meant look at the program's actual website and look for their statistics) for that. But otherwise, they're used as a measure for the rankings of the school, if you explore a bit more

I gotta say though, if you can't navigate through a few links to find what you're looking for, how do you expect to navigate through a MFE curriculum?

Well, they arent mentioned in most schools website.
But nvm, it was an old question , I got what I was looking for already.
