Which Master's Degree Should I Go For?

Disclaimer: I DON'T care about getting a direct BB IB offer at JPM/GS/MS. I'm completely open to the idea of getting an offer at an EB, MM or even in Consulting (MBB or non-MBB is fine), Asset Management, etc. Just want to land a solid finance-oriented role (doesn't have to be the creme de la creme). 


GPA - 3.72

GMAT - 700 (expected)

Undergraduate Major - Finance 


So far I'm considering Vandy MSF, Duke MMS, MIT MSF, UT Austin MSF, BC MSF, Nova MSF, and WUSTL MSF. Any other schools I should be looking into? I can't do MFE's because I haven't really taken any advanced Math/Cs courses in UG, and can't apply to MSMS degrees at Northwestern, Michigan, Notre Dame because of my Finance Undergrad
