I'm currently on a school leaver programme at an investment bank, but hold offers to study mathematics/financial mathematics course.
I am currently in a middle office function, and have been so for around 20 months, and have gained quite significant experience. The school leaver programme will offer me the chance to study towards CIMA/ACCA sponsored fully by the bank.
On the other hand, I have obtained offers to study at the following universities:
University of Nottingham - Financial Mathematics
University of Exeter - Mathematics with Finance
University of Birmingham - Mathematics
Lancaster University - Financial Mathematics (with year in Industry)
I'd ideally like to try and make it into Front Office at some point (S&T, AM etc.), but am unsure what is the best route to take. Should I stay on the programme, or go to university?
Thanks.
