MS in Finance applicants [#permalink] New post   16 Dec 2010, 11:48
Hi guys,

I have applied to MSF programs at Vanderbilt and Claremont McKenna so far. I am also preparing my apps for U of Florida, Villanova and Purdue. Has anyone heard back from Vanderbilt or CMC yet? I got a call for an interview from vandy. Could anyone share their experiences with telephone interviews at vandy or other programs in general?

The interview is key at Vandy. I know someone with a 720 and a 4.0 UG gpa who got dinged at Vandy because they are not personable. Villanova is a rolling admission, but I would recommend applying ASAP. Florida is heavily weighted towards Florida UG's (in fact I don't think they have admitted a non UF person).

If you are getting an interview with Vandy I would say that you are a lock for Purdue and Nova.


PM me if you want to talk more about different schools.
