Syracuse University MSF

I currently am an analyst for a small financial planning firm ($150 mil AUM) and although I enjoy my peers and boss, the work I do, and have incredible hours, Id like to pivot into a role that is more immersed in capital markets. I have been considering applying to Syracuse University's MSF program, mainly because that's where I work and the program is somewhat flexible, but have some concerns about whether or not this program holds weight. Does anyone have any valuable insight on placement within AM or ER on the street or other major cities? Anything helps.

 
 

I have no idea how this places but if I had someone with a Syracuse MSF come across my desk, it wouldn't move the needle for me whatsoever

I did mine @ Boston College fwiw. Solid and cheaper reset for me work wise. Just gotta bet on yourself you can network into positions. Bc most recruiters come to school's looking for the MBA's. MSF's usually get valuation type positions coming out. A couple of my classmates went to EY. But a lot end up at like Duff and Phelps and etc. Or me in Corp. Banking. BC has a decent street cred tho
