I am from India and am interested to pursue a career in Finance and will be taking admission to one of the Australian Universities next year.

Background:I have 3+ years experience in Sales and Marketing in Financial Services sector in India and have already completed my MBA in Marketing.But now I want to make a transition to a career in core Finance.I am currently 30 years and want to pursue a specialist degree such as Master in Finance.

I have conditional offers from ANU-Master of Finance and QUT-Master in Business(Finance) for 2016 intake and am also expecting offer from Monash University-Master in Banking and Finance in the next couple of days.

While ANU is higher in virtually every rankings (ANU is placed 19th in latest QS Rankings) compared to QUT or Monash but both of them are triple-accredited business schools while ANU is not.

Request some advice/opinion on the above 3 universities and whom should I select based on my profile,learning experience and career outcomes from the universities, considering I am international student.Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I suggest you focus on the business schools' outcomes rather than the parent universities' rankings. Try: How to use LinkedIn to find the best school www.find-mba.com/board/33571

Also, university ranking also don't always tell the whole story in terms of business school reputation. The ANU might be ranked in university-wide rankings, but its business school doesn't even have EQUIS or AMBA accreditation. Recruiters looking for MBAs will most likely hire from QUT or Monash.
