usc msf for real estate

I have seen some threads on the USC MSF and was wondering about it. Saw some positives mentioning the trojan network, but also a lot of mixed reviews like it might be a questionable investment. I have to make a decision in the coming days and was wondering if anyone had fresh insight. I am very interested in working in real estate after the conclusion of the program, but don't have any experience which might be a problem. I was planning on taking all the real estate electives (3 total electives available in real estate).

"bd.charlus" If you want to be in real estate and are considering USC, you should do the USC MBA or the USC MRED, not the MSF.

OP might be pre-experience. OP might be international in which case STEM designation that MSF has helps with staying in US.

If these do not apply, he/she should do MRED or MBA.
