Anyone applying to Masters programs?
I have sent my application for Duke MMS program - R1 decision.
I also plan to apply to some finance programs.
Anyone else out here?






Right there with you... Not
Right there with you...
Not applying to Duke, but applying to a whole waterfall of schools beginning December 1st. R1 for some, R2 for the others, since the revised GRE score reporting schedule pushed me back until November 17th.
Right now it's looking like:
MIT
Princeton
NYU
LSE
Oxford
Columbia
NYU-Poly
USC
Claremont McKenna
U of Rochester
Vanderbilt
IIT
Still trying to scramble for some "safeties.." Seems hard to find safeties with a MFin program, especially. Good luck!
I am thinking of setting
I am thinking of setting something up on my site so you guys can compare everyone's profile or get an idea of how competitive the years class is. Any interest?

Studying for the GMATs right now in between classes, hopefully will take it soon and get my applications submitted before the 2nd round.

ANT,
I'm ridiculously interested. As much as I really enjoy using Andy's application tracker on Quantnet, there's just not that many people attaching stats to their application status. At least, not enough people. Any idea when you'd be able to roll this out?
General Disarray,
I've been doing some serious thinking about Boston College, but I've been getting some mixed messages. Do they push for applicants with work experience or not? Formally, in the FAQ, they welcome recent undergraduates, but the class profile & the application process isn't all that encouraging. What do you think?
Anyone looking to apply to
Anyone looking to apply to Villanova, please message me and we can talk.
@banawnaw - I am always thinking about ways to expand the MSF site and provide more info. I'll talk with Andy before I do anything similar to what he has been doing (out of respect).
As for Boston College, stay tuned to my site. I am talking with them now and should be posting some student reviews and updated class profiles.

Great! Looking forward to it.
Great! Looking forward to it. I will check back between frantic GRE study sessions.
ANT, I think you should find
ANT, I think you should find some way to group schools by location i.e. midwest, southeast, etc. I think location (where we want to work) really factors into our decisions when picking schools. This might help users learn about schools more efficiently.
A map with clickable regions
A map with clickable regions that takes you to a list of schools in that area would be awesome as would an admissions probability calculator and free MSHQ boxers.

I could probably interface
I could probably interface something with google maps and stuff. I am really pushing for more student reviews and stuff like that. Just added two Wake Forest reviews and have a couple UVA out. BC is in the works. That and I am going to put some money into a decent forum set up and re-roll that out. Too many Nigerian spammers killed the old forum (that and a lack of activity) .

For the record, I talked to someone from BC's career center, and he kept stressing how bad the placements were over there right now.

BC = Boston College right ?
But if I am not wrong, wasnt it established in 1984 ? So, logically speaking shouldn't it have more visibility in the job market?
