[aishwaryagovil]

Hey Guys ,
I have got an admit from IIT chicago and Fox school of business for MS finance and MFE respectively. Which one is the better option regarding the quality of the course and the placements. PLease help me out

Both are second tier. Actually Fox comes under third tier. Placements are really bad at both places. But IIT's curriculum is good and it has many concentrations, so you could choose any course you are interested in and make your MFE a customized degree. :D

hey thanx there but fox school is listed as rank 57 in usnews while iit chicago is not listed at all. are you sure it is in third tier?

 

[kbharadwaj]

Fox is listed for its MBA program, not for its MFE.

Much of what I know about IIT is from these reviews
Review of Illinois Institute of Technology MS Finance program | Quant Network

although fox's mfe program is not ranked like their mba, can it still reflect the quality of the program? the head the the mfe department has a lot of practical work world experience that he brings to the table.. it is fairly new still so there's room to improve

There is no study done on correlation of quality between MBA and MFE programs that are housed under the same business school so I'm skeptical about the same level of value/care/service being shared equally between the two.
