Hey everyone, I was just seeing what the general consensus between these two programs are. I see that the QCF has a slightly higher salary and the FinMath has slightly better placement. Big kicker for me is I would be in-state at NCSU and therefore it is significantly cheaper. Ideally I would want to work sell-side after the program (not much for NYC or Chicago so likely Atlanta or Charlotte). The career services at NCSU also really stand out to me but I’m not sure if the prestige of the Georgia Tech name would make it more worthwhile.

If you want to be in sell-side in Raleigh, Atlanta or Charlotte, NCSU with in-state tuition is def the best choice imo. If you want to be in NYC, Boston, or Chicago I think it’s kind of a toss up tbh. I view them pretty equally.
