I think the issue is that we are competing with all the others to get within the foreigners quota.. Given you are not Swiss?

On the other hand, the heavy quant program MiQ/F have relatively low average of 161 on the GRE.

They asked me for another copy of a document to be submitted by May 15th, everything else looking good otherwise.

Congratulations !

I was having second thoughts whether to apply to the MSc accounting&finance or banking&finance and decided to apply for the banking&finance.

What made you choose the first one ?

Thank you!

Two main reasons.. Firstly, the approach is more appealing to me since I am more into consulting and M&A than financial markets. Secondly, I thought it would be more difficult to be accepted to Banking & Finance, and since you are only allowed to apply for one program I did not want to risk not getting a spot at all.

Fair enough. I guess both programs present similar opportunities and one should really choose the MBF if he/she is more quant / financial markets oriented :)

Correct me if I am wrong, but I would say that MAccFin is more sell-side/corp fin oriented while the MBF would be more tailored towards buy-side positions.

The application process is entirely online-based. Certified copies (or originals in particular cases) of school or university certificates must only be submitted after admission has been granted.

Hey guys,

Just received an offer letter a few hours ago. Maybe you should watch closely on your email account in recent days.
