ULB or Maastricht?

Hello!

So as the title says I am thinking about doing a Master’s either at ULB or Maastricht University.

To give a bit of context, I am already a lawyer in my home country and have a bit of experience in Tax Law (around 2 years). As I’m guessing a lot of you here, I‘d like to end up working at the european institutions, especially regarding tax matters and public policy. I sadly got rejected from the CoE after the interview and now I have to make the choice between ULB or Maastricht. Also, in Maastricht I got accepted both in the Advanced Master of Legal Studied and the one on Tax Law, so I’m not sure either if I should specialize even more on Tax or that would make my profile too concrete. If I’m fully honest, looking at the programmes and just thinking about what I like more, I’d chose European Law, but I do need to find a job hahaha

anyway sorry for all that context, I was wondering if anyone has some advice/ opinions, or if you had to face a similar choice and ehat did you end up doing

thanks in advance! :)

pd: i do speak both french and english so language is not going to be a problem
