Bocconi MSc Finance vs HEC MiM
Hey all,
I'm an American who was accepted to Bocconi's MSc in Finance and HEC's MiM. If my goal is to eventually work at HF, which is the better option? I have not been to Milan, but I enjoyed Paris very much.
HEC
Pro: It's a French school
Con: Location, frequent parties (not a huge party person)
Bocconi
Pro: center of Milan, cheaper, quant finance courses
Con: Idk anything about Milan
I don't speak French, but I'm proficient in Spanish. Italian is similar enough to learn in two years...I think.
TIA for any advice about which school to pick. I believe there's a significant chance of working in London regardless of school choice because English is my first language.
HEC Paris has the strongest alumni network in London.
Go to bocconi and then try to get into bsic (student association) - they have some connections to HFs. Also, You'll like the Msc Fin there. It's the most quantitative out of all European business schools and will likely prep you best for your goal.
It also depends on which HF strategy you're interested in. I am currently in the HEC MiF program no one got HF. I don't think many people applied to HF outside of Citadel but it's pretty representative of HEC not being the best for HF. Nonetheless, HEC is probably the best for IB or PE and that can lead you to HF depending on which strategy you're interested in
