MSF在Baruch Zicklin商学院!我应该期待很多吗?

只想提及我没有财务上的“学术”背景。来自印度一家机构的3.0以下的不良GPA(WES评估)。600 GMAT(准备3周,无法提高我的英语得分V27/Q44)
Got through Baruch forMSFthough. Extremely fortunate!!
What pulled me through
1) Practical Knowledge and personal small time achievements in financial markets.
2) Good essays highlighting my urge to take this course.

I can find pros about the course from anywhere on the Internet. But what I really want to know is
1. Does the course material taught have any relevance in the practical field ( isCFA与学位或相反的方式相处得很好)
2. Are the professors teaching here better than Fordham for Finance, Fordham being my second and only option.

Hope to hear a response on this forum soon.

嘿,兄弟,我显然跟当前的学生LinkedIn for both the programs. For Baruch, they said that students are on their own to find jobs. Location (NY) helps but not much as competition is just huge from top schools like NYU, columbia around. Remember u get 1 yr OPT post education. U need to find a job that will sponsor you for workVisaMSAcc & MFE at Baruch is well known and those students land up with good jobs. Baruch have very strong alumni connection. U have to go out of the way to network n get a job. For Fordham, they said its a better school compared to Baruch but the networking thing is an issue here too. U need to network a lot to find a job. They said the MSGF course is very basic but since this program is STEM approved, u get 3 yrs post graduation time to find a job n get sponsorship.

All in all both schools r in the same boat. Finance is very tough industry to find a job but one has to go out of the way to get a job. Hope this helps.

我建议在去那里之前获得实习经验。此外,两所大学都有实习课程可以参加,因此,您也可以在您的课程中进行实习。相信我,您获得的实习可能是您从事全职工作的门票。根据当前学生的反馈,两所大学都真正拥有一流的教授。因此,您的教育经验应该很好。两所大学都有许多校友BBfirms. You should start networking from the first day. Hope this helps.

Chloej90, what's your opinion? Comment below:

Yes STEM has over 3 years of OPT. But you can't use that all that time to find a job. After graduation, you have 60 days grace period to get something for yourself(even unpaid internship/jobs) to utilize that 3 year OPT. If you don't get a job during that grace period, you will get out of the country. OPT is only there because not all employers are willing to just sponsor grads after graduation, so you can work on your OPT without needing sponsorship. OPT is just to facilitate employers because they need to make sure you're worth it before spending 4-6k on your sponsorship.

不仅是词干,到处都是一样。您只有60天的宽限期可以找到一份工作,当您找到一份工作时,您可以在不赞助的情况下工作,直到您的雇主赞助您为止。STEM只有17个月的延长。正常的非茎OPT仅为12个月。

I do not want to discourage you but you should talk to currentMSFstudents to get a better idea about the program.

I wanted to judge the quality of education in Baruch forMSF。我目前正在弄清楚自己的目标,而工作安置不在该列表中。宁愿拥有良好的学习经验和曝光,而不是杀死自己寻找工作。

So do you think it is Baruch or Fordham I should look forward to for masters in finance?

I know thatDeloitteand EY hire a lot of FordhamMSFsfor their business valuation and TAS groups. I used to work with quite a few, and both of those firms sponsor heavily. I've literally never seen a BaruchMSF。Go to Fordham.

nulliusinverba, what's your opinion? Comment below:

I'm a bit confused, I was completely under the impression Fordham didn't have anMSFprogram? Is this the Global Finance program to which you're referring? I hadn't seen literally any information on that at all a few months ago, and even the school's own site seemed very, very thin at the time.

addy1920, what's your opinion? Comment below:

Yes it is a Master in Global Finance course.

由于这两个机构刚刚开始在其大师课程中提供金融课程,因此Baruch的MS在FIN中比Fordham的MSGF大一年。我发现很难理解这将是一项更好的课程,可以考虑所有利弊

Just got through MSGF at Fordham Uni also. Now hypothetically, $ isn't a consideration for my education. What would you guys say 1. Go for BaruchMSF2. Go for Fordham MSGF

Hope to hear from you all soon.

Incoming cfa level 1 charterholder, what's your opinion? Comment below:

I went to Baruch for my undergrad so I know a lot about the programs. Fordham is pretty much the same as baruch, except that Fordham will charge you a lot more money and not give you a good return for that money. I barely see Fordham kids in front office roles. In fact, I see Baruch kids more often than I do Fordham ones..

Baruch has a name in纽约, however, recruiting from Baruch sucks. Firms only come here to fill back-office or middle-office jobs. For the analytical jobs, you have to fight tooth and nail to even get an interview. The curriculum is also pretty bad. Teachers rely on textbooks to teach and as a consequence, you don't learn any practical skills such as excel, financial modeling, applications of finance to the real world.

现在,如果您别无选择,并且希望省钱,那么Baruch还不错。只需知道您必须努力工作才能获得良好的GPA,然后您可能不会从中获得任何工作。.唯一值得参加Baruch的研究生课程是MFE。但是,该程序具有超竞争力。世界一流的数学家和学者基本上只接受了该计划。您必须非常擅长数学,并拥有出色的资格才能获得。

I think Duke or MIT has aMSF。我建议尝试进入这些计划,或者至少参加高度排名的硕士学位。

Hi Drushti and Darshan,

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences here .

I've a similar situation like you both, did you guys make a decision, choosing schools?

If yes and you guys have started your classes/courses already then are these courses adding any values to your learning so far.

Lastly, what do you guys think is a better choice between 'Baruch MS FRM' and 'Fordham MS in Global Finance'?

Please advise.

Thanks.

Telemachus, what's your opinion? Comment below:

Neither

From looking at your stats, you're going to have a hard time finding something from either school.

现实是1)你是一个国际学生,2) your stats are on the weak end of the spectrum (and very weak for the Indian apps) and 3) with a verbal score so low on the GMAT, I wonder if you have the needed English skills to network/land a US job as you're not going for a quant degree. To get sponsored you need to basically fill a job that employers can't find a US citizen for. When it comes toIB/consulting/tech, employers can make that case, but your CV isn't strong enough to set yourself up for those roles regardless of what school you attend. Even if you manage to attend a top US program, you would have trouble landing something after.

Also, it's a recession / global pandemic, there will be plenty of international's with much stronger stats, not even including US citizens, going after the same jobs you will be seeking.

很抱歉变得如此粗鲁,但我建议您重新考虑您的计划或将GMAT提升到700多个水平并通过CFAlevel 1.
