COMPARE Rutgers University MQF vs Boston University MSMFT

[gaurav singh]

Well in that case you are wrong. Or clearly never went to a college with career services that will help you find a job. Because it is up to the individual, but believe me, a great many individuals I have met have claimed to have, lets call them "good soft skills" (ability to obtain and function well communicationally and socially within a job), while virtually all were very poor at it. Career counseling isn't the art of cheating the system, it is the art of learning to better interact with it to be more productive within it.

Hi Lyosha,

Thanks a lot for your answer. It helps a lot. I never meant to disregard the career counselling services. I only wanted to look at other aspects , the ones you mentioned in the last reply (thanks to you) also with some priority. I strongly believe that both the programs have decent placement stats to gets most of the people to atleast interact with the different companies visiting the campuses.

Thanks again,
Regards,
Gaurav.

I have recently got these two admissions. But now I am really confused. I don't know which one is more suitable for me. I wish to get an internship and a full-time job after graduation in the US. Boston is a good city and I believe there will be a lot of opportunities for me, however, New Brunswick is quite near the NY. And both programs provide good career services as well as great resources.
So, I can't see which one is much better than the other one.
I hope you guys may give me some advice. I am really grateful for that.

I would question what you think you know. For example, how do you plan on taking advantage of the (usually) one hour commute from New Brunswick to NY? By itself, it's not going to help you.

Hi guys
I've got an acceptance from Boston university and rutgers for fall 2019.
I would like some help deciding between the two.
Is the location of Rutgers and it's proximity to New York something which I should seriously consider?
I'm really confused between the two programs and other than the rankings on quantnet I couldn't find much information.
Thank you

Both don’t seem to be the best, but I would go with Boston University. Doing a quick LinkedIn search for Rutgers gives you horrible results. As for BU students, they may not be landing the best jobs but they were landing jobs in the financial industry. BU also has 97% employment rate and seems like the better school to me.

BU has quality education, the environment, etc. I think BU is better, I have taken few classes there, and I know their quality of education is superb.
