Graduate Degree Selction

Hey Everbody,

Wondering what people think about this program @ Pace, if anyone has ever done it or knows some who has done it. Do you think it will be helpful and marketable? I am going to be a big 4 intern summer of 2011 and need to go back to school to fufill CPA requirements. I want to get a MS in the finance area to diversify my education and leave career options open for a jump to finance/CFA. I go to a non-target and will finish with a GPA of around 3.5 with solid extracurriculars and internships, will it be possible to gain admission to this program, and is this a good idea? Link below:

Thanks Guys!

sorry man but pace is weak sauce. i grew up in the area and everyone i know associated with that school (undergrad and law students) are complete morons. pretty pathetic that they try to legitimize the program by bragging about dr. morey's citations in the nyt and wsj.

 

I've never heard of Pace.

(However, that could speak more to my unilaterally west coast background than the school's actual obscurity.)
