Hi,
I am planning to apply for MS Finance with STEM programs for Fall 2018.
My profile
GRE - 314 (Q-162, V-152)
GPA - 2.95/4
Final yr GPA - 3.36/4
I have done Integrated Dual Degree (B.Tech I.T & MBA Tech Management (Finance Majors)) in India.
I would nearly have 24 months of experience when I would join the program.
Post by integrated MBA, I have been working in a boutique investment bank (front-end role) as a Analyst and would be an Associate at the time of application. Current CTC is around 10 LPA.
I am looking for MS Finance course in US having STEM and have less overall tuition fees. Also doing MS in Finance would make sense for me at this stage of my career as due to post MBA job visa issued in US, I am looking for STEM designated MS Finance courses.
Hi there,
You're on a safe track and I've spoken to a lot of candidates who're taking the same strategy. But I'm not sure what advise are you seeking here? You can clearly look at tuition fee on each of your target school's website. Rutgers has very low fee. Infact all the public universities shall have low tuition. But private universities have a lot of scholarship grants. Depending on your post MBA goals, admissibility and employment stats shortlist your schools.
