<p>The primary purpose of the MSF program is to prepare students for careers in finance, not to pass the CFA exam. However, our students have achieved a high success rate on the exam in the past several years.</p>

<p>While filling out your application, you should just apply to the MSF program as a whole.&nbsp;</p> <p>Admitted applicants will be able to confirm their intention to pursue the Quantitative Finance (STEM-designated) Track when they submit their enrollment forms.&nbsp;<b>Important Note:</b>&nbsp;If the STEM track is not selected upon enrollment, students will not be able to switch to it at a later time.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, in order to take classes in any graduate management program, you must formally apply and be accepted into the program.</p>

<p>Work experience is not required for the MSA program. Students can gain admission directly from their undergraduate studies.</p>

<p>The MSF program is open to both those with work experience and those without. For international students, however, we highly recommend that students have some work experience, particularly if they are seeking post-MSF employment in the United States due to the increasingly competitive US employment market. The MSF Program is designed to meet the diverse needs of finance professionals, career changers, and recent undergraduates.
