So I am moving to Philly and wanted to know the best business school in the area? Obviously, UPENN is the best but how does Villanova rank in the area. I will be pursuing a MS finance. Is St. Joes, Temple, or Drexel looked more favorably upon? Say if I were to move to NYC after a stint in Philly...which of these schools carry the most weight?

It probably depends on the specific major. With all due respect to any Hawks alumni, I would predict that a St. Joe's degree would carry the least weight outside the Philadelphia metro. I believe that Temple's Fox Business School is well regarded as well as Drexel's LeBow School of Business. I'm just not sure how those two as well as Villanova would be regarded at a NYC financial firm. Perhaps do some research on the alumni network to discover how many recent grads found a job in the Big Apple after graduation.
