Taking out a student loan to pay for a financial modeling course?
Firstly, please don't throw MS at me for being a broke ass bitch and not having enough money to just pay cash for the course. It's $1600, and would also require traveling costs, as there aren't any options near the small mid-west city that I live in. Rent and bills be havin a hoe broke out here, so I'm considering taking out a subsidized loan (so no interest till 6 mos after graduation) to cover this. I graduate in December from a nontarget, with no IB internship (I do currently intern for a F500), so I'm trying to leverage (quite literally) any way that I can. Basically just want some input on if you all think the ROI would be high enough to do this? Do firms care about financial modeling courses? Has anyone made connections at one of these boot camps? Any other advice?
It's definitely helping if you want to pursue a career in banking or PE. But I highly doubt this course is worth the opportunity costs. I bet you can do much more than this course with $1600 and the time. If you had no IB experience, the course won't be a game changer for you.
