MSc in Europe, as a Canadian

You're selling yourself short - be more ambitious.

Your GMAT is very strong, strong GPA, the website is a nice differentiator (did you found them yourself?).

Target schools likeLBSand HEC as well. Depending on how quant your Economics minor was, you could give Oxford a try as well although it's a harder sell. Given you are graduating soon and are still quite young, I would try to line up a few internships for the next year and target starting your MSc next year. Regarding your question whether it's right for you - from my own MSc class, most North Americans ended up staying in London, but with some people from the US still landing solid interviews. If you are not totally opposed to staying in Europe I would definitely go for it.

非常强大的GMAT，您肯定会在欧洲的任何顶级商学院开枪！

LBSMFA doesn't require lot of experience you should apply

You have a strong profile. I'd target the top UK schools if I were you, you have a solid shot atLBSand theLSE

You have very strong stats and you're Canadian, the UK is your perfect place to go!LBS,LSE, Imperial,Oxbridgeshould be all on your hit list. If I were you, I wouldn't focus too much on the continent but rather just the UK as Brits love Canadians.

鉴于您最终想回到加拿大，我将考虑英国计划而不是大陆计划。他们会更知名的。考虑到您的背景，我还会研究其他专业硕士课程。

Hey mate, you have a really good profile and can get into most of the top programs!! Be confident and make sure your application essays are on point.
i got into one of the top masters(LBS,Oxford,LSE) for August's intake so feel free to reach out if you need any help

Uoft的主人Financial Economics has great安置是加拿大，请介意分享您的想法，因为我目前的加拿大UG也计划申请。

Hi guys, I'm here to pose the question, would I be making a mistake pursuing a MSc Finance in Europe as a Canadian. I will preface with my profile

年龄：21岁，可以在春季之前毕业

Undergrad: Non Target Western Canada Business School, Finance major, Economics minor. (4.0/4.0 or 89.87% GPA)

GMAT: 760 (51Q,41V,7IR)

Work Experience; only notable is 8months as a marketing analyst for a big4 Canadian telecom, primarily analytics.

Extra : Investment club member, operated 5 figure earning websites since 2016

理由：
Opportunities here are kind of weak, primarily crowncorp, government jobs and few firms other than big4 with regional offices operating in my province. The co-op opportunities have significantly degraded every year I have been a student. In applying to some European programs, I'd hope to work abroad London or elsewhere and eventually return back to Canada in less than 5 years, albeit not necessarily to the prairies. My current situation is that I am applying to co-op jobs, 4 or 8 months hoping to get a better position for when I choose to graduate (reduced courseload so can at any time really), or alternatively head into a masters programs in the fall.

My interest in applying to European programs is they have seemingly less consideration towards experience, with the exception of the Rotman MFRM program, most Canadian programs seem to want experience and rightfully so.

Currently I have applied to Bocconi MSc Finance, and am going to apply to ESSEC MSc Finance, WU Vienna MSc QFIN, as well asLSE（主要是娱乐）以及我尚未决定的任何其他英国学校。

Any input as to my decision on applying to European programs, or any questions you guys can probe further to help me realize a decision? Thank you.

As you probably know already, Canada and the Canadian Financial industry can be insular looking. So while Bocconi, ESSEC, WU Vienna are fantastic schools and great options, I would caution you in that if you want to come back to Canada it might not be as easy to make the transition - especially if you're trying to move back to the Prairies.LSEand Oxbridge are probably exceptions here. Not to say it can't be done, but might just be harder than you think

If I were in your shoes, I'd give the MFE program at UofT a shot. In my opinion it is easily one of the strongest programs on the street forFOplacement (Behind UBC's PMF program, Queen's QMSF both undergrad programs)
