Erasmus University Rotterdam vs Copenhagen Business School
Hi everyone,
I need your advice on choosing the right Master's program. I've been accepted, as an international student, into the MSc in Financial Economics at Erasmus School of Economics and also have a strong chance of getting into CBS's Finance and Investments Master's program.
I'm aware that the MSc in Financial Economics isn't as prestigious as the programs offered by RSM, but I'm curious about how it is perceived by recruiters across Europe. Would it be a smarter choice to attend CBS, which offers a two-year program with opportunities like the CEMS double degree or exchanges at top universities? The Financial Economics program seems a bit limited, as it is a one-year academic course without the chance for internships or international study.
I'm open to both investment banking and wealth management roles and would prefer London, though I'm flexible with other major financial hubs in Europe (I speak English and Italian fluently).
Alternatively, I could aim for a strong GMAT score and apply to other programs still accepting applications, such as ESCP's MFin or ESADE. Would this be a better path? Or should I wait another year to apply to top schools like HEC or LBS? I'm 24 and would rather not delay my plans any longer tbh.
In the future, I would like to pursue a top MBA program (preferibly in the US) before I turn 30, so please keep that in mind when considering my options.
Thanks in advance for your input!
