U of T MMPA VS. York Schulich MFin

Wanggaoyuemay

12月收到了多大MMPA的AD, 1月又收到了Schulich MFin的AD，目前真的好纠结要怎么选择。
本人在国内985大学混了两年又到加国野鸡大学读了两年本科，想要master结束果断回国，没有在加国就业和移民的打算。

MMPA自从跟Rotman没有半点关系后，我对它就充满了犹豫～
Schulich我是真的老喜欢这个商学院了啊。。。可是在中国york U没名气就算了，Schulich是啥估计根本没几个人知道。。。估计找工作的时候又要被鄙视是野鸡大学的海归，好心塞。。。
从program的时间上讲，我喜欢短的，最后一年妥妥结束我就回国工作了。。。

求各位大神给点意见，让我结束漫长的纠结。。。

多谢！

干嘛不现在国内好好实习，争取转正，实习的同时再考国内的研究生啊，其实如果只是为了master degree的话，哪里念不都一样咧~

我也录了MMPA，毕业能去做个auditor 或者financial analyst就满足了

Consulting related courses at MMPA are taught by Prof. Kevin Yousie(a business consulting firm partner, Western Alumni), Prof. Varouj Aivazian (former chair for U of T Department of Economics) and Dr. Aida Wahid (Harvard Phd in Business Strategy). Consulting education here takes advantage of U of T’s strength in quantitative finance and financial economics.  That’s why Prof. Aivazian normally spends 6 classes on economic theories underlying those popular business strategy models, developing you a good habit of analyzing the fundamentals of the client’s company or the industry it played in first before you jumped to those theoretical strategy models made up by Harvard professors. As I mentioned that U of T has strength in quantitative finance and financial economics, the consulting education here absolutely has something relates to. Valuation is a key component that professor believes MMPA student shall be competent in. Not all students go to Bain or other consulting firms anyways. Some of them may join advisory team within the Big Four, providing transaction services in M&A for clients. Therefore, MMPA program prepares you both the capability of drawing big pictures for the client and the expertise to make these wishes happen. We have case competitions in the summer and you will have the opportunity to act on either side. Try to find out which side fits you well. (Sales person type or an expert )
For me, I’m just an accountant. I have nothing to do with the consulting business but I received this level of education as an average student. From my understanding, this is how MMPA works for student with career goal in consulting. I am sure that you will develop more thoughts, understanding and expertise better than me after completing these courses . I don’t know how student from Schulich, even from Macc program has that kind of blind confident that MMPA teaches nothing but general business knowledge. They only have one chance to take a master degree though. If you want to receive the best consulting education in Canada, just apply to Ivey Business School at Western. They are top tier for sure, in the education, in alumni network and in the job market.  For other schools, each of them has a strength. Key words for U of T are “Quantitative Finance” and “Financial Economics”.   But remember that only less than 20 MMPA students finally go to a career in consulting or finance after graduation. If you would like to be a majority, just look for another program.

你好 本人是Schulich Macc毕业的 我强烈推荐你去MF 而不是去Macc 我同学在MF 都说可以真正学到很多Finance方面的东西 也学的很深 不管你是回国做consulting还是留在这边都很有帮助 不建议你去MMPA 因为学的都是些本科的基本商科知识 浪费时间浪费钱  我不觉得schulich输在名声上了的

楼主，我想说MMPA虽然脱离了ROTMAN，也不在downtown， 但是faculty大多都是ROTMAN的教授阿，这点看他们官网上faculty链接就知道了，教学水平还是非常好的。想回国的话建议直接工作或者申请美国，工作完了再出去深造也很好。

不想移民真心没必要去加拿大啊，mmpa时间那么长，学费又那么贵，性价比不高啊

如果不是移民的话，其实真没有必要在加拿大上，有时候学习的经历比学习知识更重要！美国是最好的选择，英国也很好。MMPA本是一个会计的项目，更是一个密西分校的项目，早从ROTMAN分离出来了，已成了我们的清华班了，这种环境肯定没法跟一些正规的学校的商学院比了。还有学制的问题，不移民的话，一年的项目比两年的划算的多。选择MMPA唯一的好处就是就是归国以后说你是多大毕业！不管别的，至少毕业证上是写多大。

我其实最想进证券或私募做行研，之前在加拿大做过数据分析建模的工作，一直向往这方面发展。但是国内现在 ...

既然打算回国，为什么不申请亚洲的项目呢，更贴近国内的商业模式。MMPA学的还是会计，满足不了你做行业研究这些金融需求，我个人觉得。要不是为了想移民，我也不想花堪比MBA的价格还重读一遍会计。我建议你学商业分析，更贴近数据分析建模的工作，比如我在纠结去不去的新加坡国立的商业分析，港中文也有商业分析。我认为金融除非学金融工程定量金融，其他的普通金融硕士都没什么意思
