Admission Requirements

Academic Requirements

Applicants are required to submit a statement of purpose, two letters of recommendation, undergraduate transcript and the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) score. The GMAT score and the undergraduate grade point average are not the sole criteria for admission. However, those with undergraduate grade point averages of less than B or with lower than 70th percentile scores on the GMAT have a reduced probability of admission. The Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) may be used in lieu of the GMAT at the discretion of the director of graduate studies. Applicants for whom English is not the native language will be expected to demonstrate proficiency in written and oral communications (TOEFL score of 91 or above, IELTS is 6.5 or above), or they may be required to correct deficiencies by taking selected courses for no program credit. Program requirements: To complete the program, students are expected to complete from 30 to 36 credits, depending on their undergraduate degree. Applicants who lack the necessary prerequisites are required to complete courses in statistics and financial management before they can be admitted to the program. The MSF program does not require a thesis. Students are required to pass a written comprehensive examination towards the end of the course work.

English Proficiency: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
