Who should apply
We look for ability and commitment to undertake challenging graduate study. You should have:
* a successful academic record in an American bachelor's or equivalent foreign degree program
* significant work experience, ideally in finance or another analytical field
* analytical skills as demonstrated with GMAT or GRE scores and a good academic record
* motivation for graduate study
Prior studies should include a course in introductory economics (micro and macro). Statistics is recommended.
Personal Qualities and Leadership Potential
The Simon School values well-developed communication skills for all M.S. candidates. We desire to enroll self-motivated individuals who believe that M.S. study will significantly enhance both their technical and personal skill sets. Additionally, we seek evidence of team experiences and leadership skills, shown through extra-curricular activities and on-the-job projects.
The Committee may also use a personal interview, combined with the resume and essays to assess these qualitative aspects of your application. This interview is an important two-way communication between the School and the student. Treat the interview as you would a job interview - dress professionally, arrive a little ahead of schedule, and be prepared to discuss your background, while also asking a few key questions to learn about the program. Interviews are offered by invitation of the Admissions Committee.
Work Experience and Goals
The Simon School considers internships, part-time, and/or post-baccalaureate experience, when making admission decisions. The quality and quantity of working experience, combined with career goals, are evaluated equally. We do not have a minimum number of years of post-baccalaureate work experience required for admission consideration.
Academics
The Admissions Committee seeks candidates committed to academic excellence. We review both standardized exam scores (GRE or GMAT) and consider both the overall results, as well as the quantitative and verbal distribution of the exam. Additionally, we evaluate all undergraduate and graduate coursework that has been completed prior to applying. Specific review of business, accounting and mathematics grades, as well as your overall trend through the bachelor degree is considered, in addition to your cumulative GPA. Applicant concerns on any dimension of the academic profile may be briefly addressed in the optional essay.
Dear Sir:
Hello. I'm a student majoring in engineering, I have had an internship experience in finance industry, and I also kept investing on stocks on my own. I'm extremely interested in your program for its practical curriculum. The trading lab is also a much desirable feature that draws my attention. But I am afraid my lack of education in finance is a great drawback, though I have excellent scores in math & statistics(the average of all math & statistics courses is about 94/100). Given my background, am I eligible for the quantitative track of finance?
Besides, I only have GRE scores, is it acceptable as the substitute of GMAT? Any information about the questions would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
Best Regards
David

跟你是什么学科的没关系 硬性的就是看你满不满足对方的prerequiste,不满足的话修课也就介绍的那几种方式。要么提前补了,要么录取以后再补。
软性的就是看你能否把你挖掘以前的经验和学习背景,把自己包装得和mkt ...
