Dear All/Experts/Seniors/Quants

I am at a very important crossroad of my life . Please assist me take a better decision. Presently I have admits from Rutgers-MQF(some 60k+ tuition fee) , NYU Poly (now NYU ) (45-50k tuition) MFE and Boston MSMF (60k+ tuition fee) . I have no scholarship from Rutgers and Boston but 9k schol from NYU poly.
And apparently Rutgers have asked me to send a initial tuition deposit of 4k in next 21 days also.
Please help me weigh these programs from a
1.Reputation and Brand value
2. ROI
3. Job Opportunities standpoint.
Advices will be highly appreciated.. :) :/
Expecting a Quantnet Community Communique
 
Go to Rutgers!

1) Everybody knows Rutgers
2) State school - High ROI
3) I don't know - but they can't be worse than the other two

2 out of 3, .666 batting average, not bad.

PS - As a side note, going to Rutgers will help enrich the coffers of the NJ state education department. A place you might be living or your descendants might be using if you live in NJ at some point in life. Win Win!

PS2 - You will have a football team to root for too. Double Win Win!

Hey LPM

Congrats on the offers.

I'd read the reviews of those three universities on quantnet to get a better idea of what to choose... I would also call the universities and ask them questions directly...

Cheers,

J
