Hello all,
I currently work in private wealth management and will soon be moving into an asset allocation strategist role. Essentially, I'll be building customized portfolios and exploring different asset classes for a team of advisors and their high net-worth clients.
I've accepted M7 is generally out of the question given my GPA. However, I wanted to know how T15 programs private wealth management experience. I work for a large globally recognized firm (not a BB). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jakob2293,
The schools will evaluate what exactly you've been doing in Private Wealth Management (as you know, there is a wide variety of roles and firms that descriptor could cover), what skills you've built, and how these things have contributed to your direction and goals. Help them understand why you need an MBA - anytime you don't really need an MBA to continue with what you're doing (why not a CFA instead, for example), you'll have to make sure you fully explain your plans and how the degree at their program will help you get where you are going. I'd advise you to really think about what you want to get out of each program you select and then go deep into their offerings to build your case.
Also - if the GPA is really a concern, which it sounds like it might be, think about bolstering your application with some outside continuing ed coursework to help build an alternative transcript!
Best of luck!
